Owner`s manual

Rocking
your
vehicle to get it out:
First, turn your steering wheel left and right. That will clear
the
area around
your front wheels. Then shift back and forth between “R” (Reverse) and
a
forward gear (or with a manual transmission, between First or Second gear
and Reverse), spinning the wheels
as
little as possible. Release the
accelerator pedal while
you
shift, and press lightly
on
the accelerator pedal
when the transmission
is
in
gear. If that doesn’t get you
out
after a few tries,
you may need to be towed out. Or,
you
can
use
your recovery hooks,
if
your
vehicle has them.
If
you
do
need
to
be towed
out,
see
“Towing Your
Vehicle”
in
the Index.
Using
the Recovery
Hooks
I
If
you
ever get stuck
in
sand, mud, ice or snow, your vehicle may be
equipped with recovery hooks.
The
recovery hooks are provided at
the
front
of
your vehicle. You may need to use them
if
you’re stuck off-road and
need to be pulled to some place where you can continue driving.
