CAUTION
● Tow chains or cables must be attached
only to the main structural members of
the vehicle or the towing hooks (if so
equipped). Otherwise, the vehicle body
will be damaged.
● Use the towing hook (if so equipped)
only to free a vehicle stuck in sand,
snow, mud, etc. Never tow the vehicle
for a long distance using only the tow-
ing hook.
● The towing hook is under tremendous
force when used to free a stuck vehicle.
Never pull the hook at an angle.
● Always pull the cable straight out from
the front or rear of the vehicle.
● Pulling devices should be routed so
they do not touch any part of the sus-
pension, steering, brake or cooling
systems.
● Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas
straps are not recommended for use in
vehicle towing or recovery.
If your vehicle is stuck in sand, snow, mud, etc.,
use the following procedure:
1. Turn off the Vehicle Dynamic Control System
(if so equipped).
2. Activate the Electronic Locking Rear Differ-
ential (E–Lock) System (if so equipped).
3. Make sure the area in front and behind the
vehicle is clear of obstructions.
4. Turn the steering wheel right and left to clear
an area around the front tires.
5. Slowly rock the vehicle forward and back-
ward.
● Shift back and forth between R (reverse)
and D (drive).
● Apply the accelerator as little as possible
to maintain the rocking motion.
● Release the accelerator pedal before
shifting between R and D.
● Do not spin the tires above 35 mph (55
km/h) or above 12 mph (20 km/h) if the
E–Lock System is engaged.
6. If the vehicle can not be freed after a few
tries, contact a professional towing service
to remove the vehicle.
