Driving through water
Fig. 86
Maximum permissible water lev-
el when driving through water
The following instructions must be observed if vehicle damage is to be avoided
when driving through water (e.g. flooded roads).
›
Therefore determine the depth of the water before driving through bodies of
water.
The water level must not reach above the web of the lower beam » Fig. 86.
›
Do not drive any faster than at a walking speed.
At a higher speed, a water wave can form in front of the vehicle, which can
cause water to penetrate into the engine's air induction system or other parts
of the vehicle.
›
Never stop in the water, do not reverse and do not switch the engine off.
CAUTION
■
Should water penetrate into the intake system of the engine, there is a
threat of serious damage being incurred by the engine parts!
■
When driving through water, some vehicle parts such as chassis, electrics or
transmission can be severely damaged.
■
Oncoming vehicles can generate water waves which can exceed the permis-
sible water level for your vehicle.
■
Potholes, mud or rocks can be hidden under the water, making it difficult or
impossible to drive through the body of water.
■
Do not drive through salt water, as the salt can cause corrosion. An vehicle
coming into contact with salt water is to be thoroughly rinsed with fresh wa-
ter.
Assist systems
Braking and stabilisation systems
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) 83
Antilock Braking System (ABS) 84
Traction Control System (TC) 84
Electronic Differential Lock (EDL) 84
Hydraulic Brake Assist (HBA) 84
Hill Hold Control (HHC) 84
This chapter describes the functions of the brake and stabilization systems.
The error display is in Chapter » page 31, Warning lights.
The braking and stabilisation systems are automatically activated each time
the ignition is switched on.
WARNING
■
A lack of fuel can cause irregular engine running or cause the engine to
shut down. The brake assist systems could then fail to function – risk of ac-
cident!
■
The increased safety provided by the brake assist systems must not
tempt you to take safety risks – risk of accident!
■
Adjust the speed and driving style to the current visibility, weather, road
and traffic conditions.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
Read and observe on page 83 first.
The ESC improves vehicle stability in dynamic driving situations, such as when
the vehicle starts to skid.
The ESC monitors whether the desired direction of the current vehicle motion
is occurring. In case of any deviation (e.g. oversteer), the ESC automatically
brakes individual wheels to maintain the desired direction.
During an intervention of the system, the warning light
flashes in the instru-
ment cluster.

  • I bought my 2016 Skoda Citigo two months ago and can't find out why it will suddenly ping for no obvious reason, some times pining three or four time in a row. My partner noticed the numbers 1-5 with an arrow coming up on the right hand side of the odometer but we can't find out what they or the mysterious pinging is. Please can you help. Thank you Submitted on 15-9-2022 at 10:11
