Vehicle Recovery (Freeing a Stuck Vehicle) NAS0000Z
FRONT
After removing the front licence plate (if so equipped),
1 Remove the recovery hook cover from the bumper.
2 Securely install the recovery hook stored with jacking tools.
Make sure that the hook is properly secured in the stored place after
use.
WARNING:
Stand clear of a stuck vehicle.
Do not spin your tires at high speed. This could cause them
to explode and result in serious injury. Parts of your vehicle
could also overheat and be damaged.
CAUTION:
Tow chains or cables must be attached only to the vehicle recovery hooks or main structural mem-
bers of the vehicle. Otherwise, the vehicle body will be damaged.
Do not use the vehicle tie downs to free a vehicle stuck in sand, snow, mud, etc. Never tow a vehi-
cle using the vehicle tie downs or recovery hooks.
Always pull the cable straight out from the front of the vehicle. Never pull on the vehicle at an
angle.
Pulling devices should be routed so they do not touch any part of the suspension, steering, brake
or cooling systems.
Pull devices such as ropes or canvas straps are not recommended for use in vehicle towing or
recovery.
If your vehicle is stuck in sand, snow, mad, etc., use the following procedure:
1. Turn off the Vehicle Dynamic Control System (if so equipped).
2. Make sure the area in front and behind the vehicle is clear of obstructions.
3. Turn the steering wheel right and left to clear an area around front tires.
4. Slowly rock the vehicle forward and backward.
Shift back and forth between R (reverse) and D (drive) (automatic transmission models) or 1st (low)
and R (reverse) (manual transmission models).
Apply the accelerator as little as possible to maintain the rocking motion.
Release the accelerator pedal before shifting between R and D (automatic transmission models) or 1st
and R (manual transmission models).
Do not spin the tires above 35 MPH (55 km/h).
5. If the vehicle cannot be freed after a few tires, contact a professional towing service to remove the vehicle.

Towing hook is not available.
