Driving your vehicle
Rocking the vehicle
When it is necessary to rock the
vehicle to escape from snow, sand,
or mud, first move the steering wheel
from side to side to clear the front-
wheel area. Then, move the shift
lever back and forth between
R(Reverse) and any forward gears.
Do not race the engine, and avoid
unnecessary wheel spins. When
your vehicle is still stuck in after try-
ing the above, have the vehicle
pulled out by a tow truck to avoid
engine overheating and transmission
damages.
NOTICE
A long-time rocking may overheat
the engine and damage the trans-
mission/tires.
WARNING
- Spinning tires
Do not spin the wheels, espe-
cially faster than 35 mph (56
km/h). Spinning the wheels at a
high speed, while parking, may
overheat a tire and injure
passers-by.

Information
The ESC system must be turned OFF
before rocking the vehicle.
WARNING
When your vehicle is stuck in
snow, mud, sand, etc., you may
rock the vehicle to escape by
moving forwards and back-
wards. Do not attempt this,
when people or objects are any-
where near the vehicle. Rocking
the vehicle may cause it to sud-
denly move forwards or back-
wards, as it becomes unstuck,
injuring nearby people or dam-
aging objects.
