IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
350
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.
Turn off the active traction control system to become
unstuck to allow the tires to spin enough to remove the
vehicle from the obstruction. (For details, see “Vehicle
stability control system” on page 290.)
CAUTION
Do not attempt to rock the vehicle free by moving it
forward and backward if people or objects are anywhere
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 objects.
NOTICE
If you rock your vehicle, observe the following
precautions to prevent damage to the transmission and
other parts.
D Do not depress the accelerator pedal while shifting
the selector lever or before the transmission is
completely shifted to forward or reverse gear.
D Do not race the engine and avoid spinning the
wheels.
D If your vehicle remains stuck after rocking the vehicle
several times, consider other ways such as towing.
