What you don't want to do when your vehicle is stuck is to spin your
wheels too fast. The method known as .*rocking" can help you get out
when you're stuck, but you must use caution.
u
NOTICE:
Spinning your wheels can destroy parts of your vehicle as well
as the tires. If you spin the wheels too Fast while shifting your
transaxle back and forth, you can destroy your transaxle.
For information about using tire chains on your vehicle, see "Tire Chains"
in the Index.
Rocking your vehicle to get it out:
First, turn your steering wheel left and right. That will clear the area
around your
front wheels. You should turn your traction control system
off. (See "Traction Control System" in the Index.) Then shift back and
forth between REVERSE (R) and a forward gear, spinning the wheels as
little as possible. Release the accelerator pedal while you shift, and press
lightly on the accelerator pedal when the transaxle is in gear. if that
doesn't get you out after a few tries, you may need to be towed out. If you
do need to be towed aut, see '*Towing Your Vehicle" in the Index.

If the CHECK OIL light on the instrument panel comes on, it means you
need to check your engine oil level right away. For more information, see
“Check
Oil Light” in the Index. You should check your engine oil level
regularly;
this is an added reminder.
It’s a good idea
to check your engine oil every time you get fuel. In order
to get an accurate reading,
the oil must be warm and the vehicle must be
on level ground.
Turn off the engine and
give
the oil a few
minutes
to drain back
into
the oil pan. If you
don‘t, the
oil dipstick
might
not show the
actual level.
