Problems on the Road Don't use yourcompact spare on some other vehicle. And don't mix your compact spare or wheel with other wheels or tires. They won't fit. Keep yourspare and its wheel together. NOTICE: Tire chains won't fit your compact spare. Using them will damageyour vehicle and destroy the chains too. Don't use tire chains on your compact spare. Rocking your vehicle to get it out: First, turn your steering wheel left and right. That will clear the area around your front wheels. Then shift backand forth between R (Reverse) and a fonGard gear (or with a manual transaxle, between First or Second gear and Reverse), spinning the wheels as little as possible. Releasethe accelerator pedal while youshift, 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 towedout. If you do need to be towed out, see Towing Your Vehicle in the Index. I f You're Stuck: In Sand, Mud, Ice or Snow What youdon't want to do when your vehicle is stuck is to spin your wheels. The method known as "rocking" can help you get out when you're stuck, but you must use caution. NOTICE: Spinning your wheelscan destroy parts of your vehicleas well as the tires. If you spin the wheels too fast while shifting your transaxle back and forth, you can destroy your transaxle.
