BMW 2006 X3 3.0i SAV Manual Do Proprietário

Do not drive in water that is deeper than
20 in/50 cm. If you must drive through water
up to that depth, drive at a walking speed
and do not stop.
After leaving the water, press on the foot-
brake gently several times while driving at a
low speed. The brake applications will help
to dry the brakes, thus preventing a reduc-
tion in braking performance caused by the
moisture.
For cleaning the handbrake, apply the lever
slightly at approx. 25 mph/40 km/h and con-
tinue to drive for approx. 200 yards/
200 meters, provided that traffic conditions
allow you to do so.

Please bear the following points in mind after
driving on poor roads, in order to preserve the
road safety of your BMW:

Clean the heavy dirt from the body.

Clean mud, snow, ice and other materials
from the wheels and tires. Check the tires
for damage.
