Driving through standing water

  • Check how deep the water is before you drive in. It must not come above the lower edge of the body.
  • Turn off the A/C before setting off, slow down, then press the accelerator gently and steadily – don't lift off – and cross slowly.
  • Never drive where the water is more than half the height of the tyre.
  • If the car has been in water above the door sills, water may have reached high-voltage parts. Contact an authorised Jaecoo service centre promptly to have it checked.

Note:In stormy weather, try to charge somewhere sheltered.

If the car has been soaked or submerged

  1. 1Switch the vehicle power OFF.
  2. 2Contact your Jaecoo dealer for further advice before using the car.
