Honda CR-V: Accelerating and Braking
Honda CR-V (2006–2011) Owner's Manual / Driving / Off-Highway Driving Guidelines / Accelerating and Braking
For better traction on all surfaces, accelerate slowly and gradually build up speed. If you try to start too fast on wet soil, mud, snow, or ice, you might not have enough traction to get underway, and you may dig yourself a hole. Starting with the shift lever in second (2) gear will help you have a smoother start on snow or ice.
Keep in mind that you will usually need more time and distance to brake to a stop on unpaved surfaces.
Avoid hard braking. Do not ‘‘pump’’ the brakes; let the anti-lock braking system pump them for you.
