Release Lever

6. Move the gear selector to the NEUTRAL (N)

position.

7. The vehicle may then be started in

NEUTRAL.

8. Reinstall the gear selector override access

cover.

FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE

If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand, or

snow, it can often be moved using a rocking

motion. Turn the steering wheel right and left to

clear the area around the front wheels. Shift

back and forth between DRIVE (D) and

REVERSE (R), while gently pressing the

accelerator. Use the least amount of

accelerator pedal pressure that will maintain

the rocking motion, without spinning the wheels

or racing the engine.

CAUTION!

Driving with a hot cooling system could

damage your vehicle. If the temperature

gauge reads HOT (H), pull over and stop the

vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air

conditioner turned off until the pointer drops

back into the normal range. If the pointer

remains on HOT (H), and you hear continuous

chimes, turn the engine off immediately and

call for service.
