VEHICLE RECOVERY (Freeing a
stuck vehicle)
WARNING
쐌 Stand clear of a stuck vehicle.
쐌 Do not spin the tires at a 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 Use the towing hook only, not other
parts of the vehicle. Otherwise, the
vehicle body will be damaged.
쐌 Use the towing hook only to free a
vehicle stuck in sand, snow, mud, etc.
Never tow the vehicle for a long dis-
tance using only the towing hook.
쐌 The towing hook is under tremen-
dous force when used to free a stuck
vehicle. Always pull the cable straight
out from the front of the vehicle.
Never pull on the hook at an angle.
쐌 Pulling devices should be routed so they do
not touch any part of the suspension, steer-
ing, brake or cooling systems.
쐌 Always pull the cable straight out from the
front or rear of the vehicle. Never pull on the
vehicle at an angle.
쐌 Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas
straps are not recommended for use in ve-
hicle towing or recovery.
