Do not rock the vehicle if the engine is not at normal operating
temperature or damage to the transmission may occur.

Do not rock the vehicle for more than a minute or damage to the
transmission and tires may occur, or the engine may overheat.

If your vehicle is equipped with AdvanceTrac

௡ with RSC, it may be

beneficial to turn the system off so the wheels are allowed to spin.

REVERSE SENSING SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

The Reverse Sensing System (RSS) sounds a tone to warn the driver of
obstacles near the rear bumper when the R (Reverse) is selected and the
vehicle is moving at speeds less than 3 mph (5 km/h). The system is not
effective at speeds above 3 mph (5 km/h) and may not detect certain
angular or moving objects.

To help avoid personal injury, please read and understand the
limitations of the reverse sensing system as contained in this

section. Reverse sensing is only an aid for some (generally large and
fixed) objects when moving in reverse on a flat surface at “parking
speeds”. Inclement weather may also affect the function of the RSS;
this may include reduced performance or a false activation.

To help avoid personal injury, always use caution when in R
(Reverse) and when using the RSS.

This system is not designed to prevent contact with small or
moving objects. The system is designed to provide a warning to

assist the driver in detecting large stationary objects to avoid damaging
the vehicle. The system may not detect smaller objects, particularly
those close to the ground.

Certain add-on devices such as large trailer hitches, bike or
surfboard racks and any device that may block the normal

detection zone of the RSS system may create false beeps.
