ROCKING THE VEHICLE
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle to free
it from snow, sand or mud, move the
selector lever on an automatic transmission
models from "D" to "R" in a repeat pattern
while depressing the accelerator gently.
(On manual transmission models, move the
gearshift lever from first to reverse gear.)
Do not race the engine. If you are still stuck
after a minute or two of rocking, have the
vehicle pulled out to avoid overheating and
possible damage to the transmission.
Do not spin the front wheels
excessively, as this may cause
personal injury and/or premature failure
of the driveline components.
CAUTION
TOWING
CARAVAN OR TRAILER
Your vehicle is designed primarily as a
passenger vehicle therefore handling,
braking, durability and economy will be
affected by towing a caravan or trailer.
Your safety and satisfaction depend upon
proper use of correct equipment. Also, you
should avoid overloading and other
abusive use.
The maximum loaded trailer weight you can
pull with your vehicle depends on your
intended use and what special equipment
has been installed on it. Before attempting
any towing, ensure that the correct
equipment is fitted to your vehicle.
Your Daewoo Dealer will help supply and
install towing equipment to suit your
requirement.
ï Drive off slowly and avoid jerky
movements.
ï More brake pedal pressure is
necessary when braking since the
brake servo unit is operative only
when the engine is running.
ï On vehicles with power steering,
greater steering force is necessary
since this unit is operative only
when the engine is running.
NOTE
ï The towing hook should be used
only in an emergency situation.
ï When towing the vehicle with a
rope, the vehicle should be towed
only facing forward.
ï Vehicles with automatic
transmission should not be towed
with a rope. They should be towed
with the front wheels off the ground
or carried by a flat bed truck.
ï Never attempt to tow the vehicle
with a rope if the wheels,
transmission, axles, steering or
brakes are damaged.
