(a) Towing with wheel lift type truck—
NOTICE
If you rock your vehicle, observe the
following precautions to prevent dam-
age to the transmission and other
parts.
—From front
Turn off the traction control system to
become unstuck to allow the tires to
spin enough to remove the vehicle from
the obstruction. (For details, see
“Traction control system” on page 175
in Section 1−7.)
z Do not depress the accelerator ped-
al while shifting the selector lever
or before the transmission is com-
pletely shifted to forward or reverse
gear.
—From rear
CAUTION
z Do not race the engine and avoid
spinning the wheels.
Do not attempt to rock the vehicle
free by moving it forward and back-
ward if people or objects are any-
where near the vehicle. During the
rocking operation the vehicle may
suddenly move forward or backward
as it becomes unstuck, causing injury
or damage to nearby people or ob-
jects.
z If your vehicle remains stuck after
rocking the vehicle several times,
consider other ways such as tow-
ing.
