If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck In Mud

or Snow

If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, shift
between drive (D) and reverse (R) pressing
lightly on the accelerator pedal in each
gear. Stop between shifts in a steady
pattern to rock your vehicle.

Note: Do not rock your vehicle if the electric
motor is not at normal operating
temperature or damage to the transmission
may occur.

Note: Excessive rocking may eventually
cause a loss of power, as your vehicle
protects against overheating or damage.
