FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
• If your manual transmission vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand, or snow, it can often bemoved by a rocking motion. Turn your steering wheel right and left to clear the area
around the front wheels. Then shift back and forth between DRIVE/1st Gear and RE-
VERSE. Using minimal accelerator pedal pressure to maintain the rocking motion,
without spinning the wheels, is most effective.
NOTE:
• Automatic transmission vehicles cannot be rocked in this manner, because the trans- mission will not allow shifts between DRIVE and REVERSE while the wheels are turning.
• If your vehicle is equipped with Electronic Stability Control (ESC) or Traction Control
,
turn the system off before attempting to “rock” the vehicle.
CAUTION!
• Racing the engine or spinning the wheels may lead to transmission overheating and
failure. Allow the engine to idle with the shift lever in NEUTRAL for at least one minute
after every five rocking-motion cycles. This will minimize overheating and reduce the
risk of transmission failure during prolonged efforts to free a stuck vehicle.
• When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by moving between DRIVE/1st gear and REVERSE, do
not spin the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), or drivetrain damage may result.
• Revving the engine or spinning the wheels too fast may lead to transmission over-
heating and failure. It can also damage the tires. Do not spin the wheels above
30 mph (48 km/h) while in gear (no transmission shifting occurring).
WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces generated by excessive wheel speeds may
cause damage, or even failure, of the axle and tires. A tire could explode and injure
someone. Do not spin your vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) or for longer
than 30 seconds continuously without stopping when you are stuck and do not let
anyone near a spinning wheel, no matter what the speed.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

OPENING THE HOOD
• Pull the hood release lever located on theinstrument panel, below the steering col-
umn.
• Raise the hood and locate the safety catch lever, in the middle of the hood
opening.
• Move the safety latch while lifting the hood at the same time.
• Lift upward on the hood prop rod insulator to release the hood prop rod from the
stowage retainer.
• Insert the hood prop rod into the slot on the hood.
• To close the hood, remove the support rod and place it in the retaining clip, then
lower the hood slowly.
WARNING!
Be sure the hood is fully latched before driving your vehicle. If the hood is not fully
latched, it could open when the vehicle is in motion and block your vision. Failure to
follow this warning could result in serious injury or death.

TIRE PRESSURES
• Check the inflation pressure of each tire, including the spare tire, at least monthly andinflate to the recommended pressure for your vehicle.
• The tire pressures recommended for your vehicle are found on the “Tire and Loading Information” label located on the driver’s side door opening.
NOTE:
Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for
more information regarding tire warnings
and instructions.
WARNING!
• Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recom-
mended load capacity for your vehicle. Never overload them.
• Improperly inflated tires are dangerous and can cause collisions. Under-inflation is the leading cause of tire failure and may result in severe cracking, component
separation, or “blow out”. Over-inflation reduces a tire’s ability to cushion shock.
Objects on the road and chuck holes can cause damage that results in tire failure.
Unequal tire pressures can cause steering problems. You could lose control of your
vehicle. Over-inflated or under-inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail
suddenly, resulting in loss of vehicle control.
