Voice Command Tips

FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
• If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it can often be moved by a rockingmotion. Turn your steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the front wheels.
Then, move the shift lever/gear selector back and forth between REVERSE and DRIVE.
Using minimal accelerator pedal pressure to maintain the rocking motion, without
spinning the wheels, is most effective.
• Allow the engine to idle with the transmission shift lever/gear selector in NEUTRAL for at least one minute after every five rocking-motion cycles. This minimizes overheating and
reduce the risk of transmission failure during prolonged efforts to free a stuck vehicle.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with Electronic Stability Control (ESC) then press the "ESC Off"
switch, to place the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system in "Partial Off" mode, before
rocking the vehicle.
CAUTION!
Revving the engine or spinning the wheels too fast may lead to transmission overheating
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 tire damage or failure. A tire could explode and injure someone. Do not spin your
vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) when you are stuck. Do not let anyone
near a spinning wheel, no matter what the speed.
