If your vehicle becomes stuck

If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow,
mud, sand, etc., then you may attempt
to rock the vehicle free by moving it
forward and backward.
CAUTION

free by moving it forward and back-
ward if people or objects are any-
where near the vehicle. During the
rocking operation
the vehicle may
suddenly move forward or backward
as it becomes unstuck, causing injury
or damage to nearby people or ob-
jects.

following precautions to prevent dam-
age to the transmission and other

al while shifting the selector lever
or before the transmission is com-
pletely shifted to forward or reverse
gear.

spinning the wheels.
z If your vehicle remains stuck after
rocking the vehicle several times,
consider other ways such as tow-
ing.
