NOTICE:
Spinning your wheels can destroy parts
of
your
vehicle as well as the tires.
If
you spin the wheels
too fast while shifting your transmission back
and forth, you can destroy your transmission.
For information about using tire chains on your vehicle,
see “Tire Chains” in the Index.
Rocking
Your
Vehicle
To
Get
It
Out
First,
turn
your steering wheel left and right. That will
clear the area around your front wheels. If
your
vehicle
has ASR, you should
turn
the system off. (See
“ASR
System”
in
the Index.) Then shift back and forth between
REVERSE (R) and a
forward
gear (or with
a
manual
transmission, between FIRST
(1)
or
SECOND
(2)
and
REVERSE
(R)),
spinning the wheels as little as possible.
Release the accelerator pedal while you shift, and press
lightly on
the
accelerator pedal when the transmission is
in gear. If that doesn’t get you
out
after
a
few tries, you
may need to be towed out. If you do need to be towed
out, see “Towing Your Vehicle” in the Index.
