Operation under adverse driving conditions
N00837200620
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 selector lever
rhythmically between “Sports mode” and “R” (REVERSE)
position, while pressing lightly on the accelerator pedal.
Do not rev the engine or 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.
CAUTION
!Never tow an automatic transaxle vehicle with the
rear wheels up (and the front wheels on the ground)
(Type B) when the automatic transaxle fluid level is
low. This may cause serious and expensive damage
to the transaxle.
WA R N I N G
!To prevent entry of exhaust gas from the towing
vehicle, set your air selection switch to the recircula-
tion position.
WA R N I N G
!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.
