WARNING
쐌 Stand clear of a stuck vehicle.
쐌 Do not spin your tires at high speed.
This could cause them to explode
and result in serious injury. Parts of
your vehicle could also overheat and
be damaged.
CAUTION
쐌 Tow chains or cables must be at-
tached only to the vehicle recovery
hooks or main structural members of
the vehicle. Otherwise, the vehicle
body will be damaged.
쐌 Never tow a vehicle using the vehicle
tie downs or recovery hooks.
쐌 Always pull the cable straight out
from the front or rear of the vehicle.
Never pull the vehicle at an angle.
쐌 Pulling devices should be routed so
they do not touch any part of the
suspension, steering, brake or cool-
ing systems.
쐌 Pull 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 (VDC)
system.
2. Make sure the area in front and behind the
vehicle is clear of obstructions.
3. Turn the steering wheel right and left to clear
an area around the front tires.
4. Slowly rock the vehicle forward and back-
ward.
쐌 Shift back and forth between R (reverse) and
D (drive).
쐌 Apply the accelerator as little as possible to
maintain the rocking motion.
쐌 Release the accelerator pedal before shifting
between R and D.
쐌 Do not spin the tires above 35 MPH (55
km/h).
5. If the vehicle cannot be freed after a few tries,
contact a professional towing service to re-
move the vehicle.
