Driving instructions
Road salts and chemicals can adversely af-
fect braking efficiency. Increased pedal
force may become necessary to produce
the normal brake effect.
Standing water
Warning!
G
To prevent water from entering the pas-
senger compartment or the engine com-
partment if you must drive through
standing water, keep in mind that
If the vehicle becomes stuck in snow, make
sure that snow is kept clear of the exhaust
pipe and from around the vehicle with the
engine running. Otherwise, deadly carbon
monoxide (CO) gases may enter vehicle
interior resulting in unconsciousness and
death.
Depressing the brake pedal periodically
when traveling at length on salt-strewn
roads can bring road-salt-impaired braking
efficiency back to normal.
ț
the maximum depth of the water may
not exceed 10 in (25 cm)
If the vehicle is parked after being driven
on salt-treated roads, the braking
efficiency should be tested as soon as
possible after driving is resumed.
ț
you must drive slowly
To assure sufficient fresh air ventilation,
open a window slightly on the side of the
vehicle not facing the wind.

Make sure not to endanger any other road
users when carrying out these braking
maneuvers.
i R 63 AMG with AIRMATIC*:
The outside temperature indicator is not
designed to serve as an ice-warning device
and is therefore unsuitable for that purpose.
Indicated temperatures just above the freez-
ing point do not guarantee that the road sur-
face is free of ice.
If you have selected the highway level
(୴ page 289) with the ADS in SPORT mode
(୴ page 286) before driving through standing
water, the maximum water depth is
7.5 in (19 cm).
If you have selected the raised level
(୴ page 289) before driving through standing
water, the maximum water depth is 9 in (23 cm).
