5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■
When it is difficult to free the vehicle
CAUTION
■
When attempting to free a stuck vehicle
If you choose to push the vehicle back and forth to free it, make sure the surround-
ing area is clear to avoid striking other vehicles, objects or people. The vehicle may
also lunge forward or lunge back suddenly as it becomes free. Use extreme cau-
tion.
■
When shifting the shift lever
Be careful not to shift the shift lever with the accelerator pedal depressed.
This may lead to unexpected rapid acceleration of the vehicle that may cause an
accident resulting in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■
To avoid damage to the transmission and other components
●
Avoid spinning the front wheels and depressing the accelerator pedal more than
necessary.
●
If the vehicle remains stuck even after these procedures are performed, the vehi-
cle may require towing to be freed.
Press the VSC off switch to turn off TRAC.
