Operation under adverse driving conditions
N00837200587
If your vehicle becomes stuck in sand, mud or
snow If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow, sand, or mud, it can
often be moved by a rocking motion. Move the gearshift lever
(manual transaxle) or selector lever (automatic transaxle)
rhythmically between 1st and Reverse position (with manual
transaxle) or “Sports mode” and “R” (REVERSE) position
(with automatic transaxle), while pressing lightly on the accel-
erator pedal.
Do not race the engine nor spin the wheels. Constant efforts to
free a stuck vehicle can cause overheating and transaxle fail-
ure. Let the engine idle for a few minutes to cool the transaxle
before trying again.
If your vehicle is still stuck after several rocking attempts, call
for a commercial tow truck service.

position.

!When trying to rock your vehicle out of a stuck posi-
tion, make sure that there are no people nearby. The
rocking motion can make your vehicle suddenly
lurch forward or backward, and injure any
bystanders.
