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.
You can use the “AUTO LSD” switch
(two wheel drive models) or four wheel
drive lock switch (four wheel drive
models) in this situation. (For details,
see “AUTO LSD system” on page 151
or “Active torque control 4WD system”
on page 148 in Section 1 7.)
CAUTION
Do not attempt to rock the vehicle
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

pletely shifted to forward or reverse

ing.
