If you want to drive on very steep uphill or
downhill gradients, make sure beforehand
that the engine oil and coolant levels are
near the MAX mark, refer to page

240

On very steep downhill slopes, use Hill
Descent Control HDC, refer to page

While driving, watch carefully for obstacles
such as rocks or holes. Try to avoid these
obstacles whenever possible.

Please make sure that the undercarriage
does not touch the ground, for example on
crests and bumpy roads. The ground clear-
ance of the vehicle is a maximum of approx.
8 in/20 cm. Please note that the ground
clearance can vary depending on loading
and the driving conditions of the vehicle.

Only drive through water on roads up to a
maximum depth of 18 in/45 cm and only at
walking speed, making sure not to stop in
the process.

After driving through water at low speed,
lightly press the brake pedal several times
to dry the brakes and to prevent the braking
effect from being reduced by wetness.

Depending on the condition of the surface,
it may be practical to briefly activate DTC,
refer to DTC Dynamic Traction Control on
page

If the drive wheels spin on one side, depress
the accelerator pedal sufficiently so that the
driving stability control systems can distrib-
ute the drive forces to the individual wheels.

Please note the following points after driving on
poor roads to maintain the driving safety of your
BMW:

Clean the coarsest dirt from the body.

Clean mud, snow, ice etc. from the wheels
and tires and check the tires for damage.
