Under wet road conditions you should
drive at a lower speed than on dry roads
due to possible slippage of tires during
braking. When driving on icy, snow-cov-
ered, or muddy roads, reduce your speed
and avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt
braking, or sharp steering movements.
7 L U H & K D L Q VTire chains should only be used if they are
needed to increase traction or are required
by law. Make sure that the chains you use
are the correct size for your vehicle’s tires.
Also make sure that there is enough clear-
ance between the fenders and the chains
as installed on the tires.
Install the chains on the front tires tightly,
according to the chain manufacturer’s
instructions. Retighten the chains after
driving about 1.0 km (1/2 mile) if neces-
sary. With the chains installed, drive slowly.
, I < R X U 9 H K L F O H * H W V 6 W X F NIf your vehicle gets stuck in snow, mud, or
sand, follow the directions below:
1) Shift the transaxle back and forth
between first gear and reverse. This will
create a rocking motion which may give
you enough momentum to free the
vehicle. Press gently on the accelerator
to keep wheel spinning to a minimum
wheel rpm. Remove your foot from the
accelerator while shifting.
Do not race the engine. Excessive
wheel spin will cause the tires to dig
deeper, making it more difficult to free
the vehicle.
2)
If your vehicle remains stuck after a few
minutes of rocking, we recommend you
to consult your D X W K R U L V H G 0 D U X W L 6 X ] X N L
Z R U N V K R S or a roadside assistance
service. If a towing service is not
available in an emergency, your
vehicle may be tem-porarily towed by
a towing cable or chain secured to
the towing hook either on the front of
the vehicle or on the rear of the vehicle.
Refer to “Frame Hooks” in the
“OTHER CONTROLS AND
EQUIPMENT” section.
