Volkswagen Tiguan Owners Manual: Crossing ditches
Read and follow the introductory information and
safety information first⇒
Introduction
to the subject
- Check whether the approach/departure angle and the lateral angle (tilt)
are small enough to allow the vehicle to cross the ditch.
- If possible, cross the ditch at an acute angle ⇒
.
- This is only possible if the lateral angle (side-to-side tilt) is not too
large.

Warning
If the approach/departure angle or the lateral angle of the ditch are too steep
for the vehicle, do not attempt to cross the ditch. The vehicle can fall over on
its side, slide sideways, or turn over.

NoteIf you enter at right angles to the
ditch, the front wheels will fall into the ditch. The underbody of the vehicle can
get stuck and the vehicle can be damaged or disabled. Getting out of a ditch without
assistance is rarely possible, even with all-wheel drive.
