Off-road Driving
AFTER DRIVING OFF-ROAD
WARNING
Before rejoining the public highway, or
driving at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h),
consideration should be given to the
following:
SERVICING REQUIREMENTS
Vehicles operated in arduous conditions,
particularly on dusty, muddy or wet terrain, and
vehicles undergoing frequent or deep wading
conditions will require more frequent servicing.
See ‘OWNER MAINTENANCE’, page 195 and
contact a Land Rover retailer for advice.
•
Wheels and tires must be cleaned of mud
and inspected for damage - ensure that
there are no lumps or bulges in the tires or
exposure of the ply or cord structure.
After wading in salt water or driving on sandy
beaches, use a hose to wash the underbody
components and any exposed body panels with
fresh water. This will help to protect the
vehicle's cosmetic appearance and help prevent
corrosion.
•
If wheels and tires are not cleaned
properly, damage to the wheels, tires,
braking system and suspension
components could occur.
•
•
•
Brake discs and callipers should be
examined and any stones or grit that may
affect braking efficiency removed.
The underside of the vehicle should be
checked for damage, especially the
suspension air springs and dampers.
Any damage to paint or protective
coatings, should be rectified by a Land
Rover retailer as soon as possible.
If you have any doubt whether the vehicle has
been damaged, have the vehicle inspected by
a Land Rover retailer.
