Driving Safely
Driving Through Water
After running the vehicle in water, it’s critical to have it serviced as
outlined in the maintenance chart. See page 75. The following areas
need special attention: engine oil, transmission oil, front and rear
gearcases and all grease fittings. NOTE: If water has been ingested
into the PVT, follow the procedure on page 73 for drying out the PVT.
If your vehicle becomes immersed, and it’s impossible to take it to a
dealer before starting it, follow the steps described on page 110. Have
the vehicle serviced by your dealer promptly.
Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly
inspected after operation in water. Perform the services outlined
in the maintenance chart.
If your vehicle becomes immersed or is operated in water that
exceeds the footrest level, take it to your dealer for service
before starting the engine.
