CAUTION!
Racing the engine or spinning the wheels may lead to
transmission or clutch overheating and failure. Al-
low the engine to idle with the shift lever in NEU-
TRAL for at least one minute after every five rocking-
motion cycles. This will minimize overheating and
reduce the risk of transmission or clutch failure
during prolonged efforts to free a stuck vehicle.
NOTE: Turn off the Electronic Stability Program (ESP)
— if equipped, or Traction Control System (TCS) — if
equipped before rocking the vehicle. Refer to “Electronic
Brake Control” in “Starting And Operating” for further
information.
CAUTION!
• When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by moving be-
tween DRIVE (automatic transmission) or 1st Gear
(manual transmission) and REVERSE, do not spin
the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), or drive-
train damage may result.
• Revving the engine or spinning the wheels too fast
may lead to transmission overheating and failure.
It can also damage the tires. Do not spin the
wheels above 30 mph (48 km/h) while in gear (no
transmission shifting occurring).
