WARNING!
When attempting to rock your vehicle out of a stuck
position, be sure that the area around the vehicle is
clear of people. The rocking motion may cause the
vehicle to suddenly lurch forward or backward,
causing injury to by-standers.
On a wet road
CAUTION!
• Avoid flooded roads. Water depth can be decep-
tive, and you could be seriously hurt by driving
into flood water.
• When driving in rain, on water-covered roads, or
through a vehicle wash, water could enter the
brake drum linings or discs, resulting in tempo-
rarily ineffective brakes. In such cases, lightly
depress the brake pedal to see if the brakes
operate properly. If they do not, lightly depress
the pedal several times while driving in order to
dry the brake pads or linings, then check them
again.
