may lead to transmission overheating and
failure. Allow the engine to idle with the
transmission in NEUTRAL for at least one
minute after every five rocking-motion
cycles. This will minimize overheating and
reduce the risk of transmission failure
during prolonged efforts to free a stuck
vehicle.

between DRIVE and REVERSE, do not spin
the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/hyf or drivetrain damage may result.

one specified for your vehicle. Personal
injury or engine damage may result.
