Crossing obstacles:
Select gear range “1” on the automatic transmission,
see page 207.
If necessary activate differential locks, see page 253.
ABS, BAS and ESP are switched off automatically when
the differential locks are activated.
Cross obstacles (e.g. tree stumps or big rocks) very
slowly by aiming one of the front wheels at the center of
the obstacle, and repeat same with the rear wheel.
Important!
Damage on the vehicle definitely increases the chance
for a subsequent accident.
Notes:
Check the vehicle clearance before crossing obstacles
that possibly could damage the undercarriage.
If possible use the assistance of a second person.
Special attention is needed when crossing obstacles on
a steep incline. The vehicle could slide sideways as a
result of its possible slanted position.
