■When attempting to free a stuck vehicle
If you choose to push the vehicle back and forth to free it, make sure the surrounding

lunge forward or lunge back suddenly as it becomes free. Use extreme caution.

dent resulting in deat h or serious injury.
NOTICE

●Avoid spinning the rear wheels and depressing the accelerator pedal more than nec-
essary.
●If the vehicle remains stuck even after th ese procedures are performed, the vehicle
