NOTICE:
Spinning your wheels can destroy parts of your
vehicle as well
as
the tires.
If
you
spin the wheels
too fast while shifting your transaxle back and
forth, you can destroy your transaxle.
For information about using tire chains
on
your vehicle,
see “Tire Chains” in the Index.
Rocking your vehicle to get
it
out:
First, turn your steering wheel left and right. That will
clear the area around your front wheels. You should turn
your traction control system off. (See “Traction Control
System” in the Index.) Then shift back and forth
between REVERSE
(R)
and a forward gear, spinning the
wheels as little
as
possible. Release the accelerator pedal
while you shift, and press lightly on the accelerator
pedal when the transaxle is in gear. If that doesn’t get
you out after
a
few tries, you may need to be towed out.
If you do need to be towed out, see “Towing Your
Vehicle” in the Index.
