**Stop and Assess:** If you notice the wheels starting to spin and sink, immediately stop accelerating to prevent sinking deeper.
**Clearing and Placing:** Use the small shovel provided with your vehicle to clear some loose sand from in front of and under the wheels of the stuck vehicle. Insert the traction board, with the textured side facing up, at approximately a 45-degree angle in front of the drive wheel, ensuring a stable contact between the board and the ground. If the wheels are completely stuck, place the board under the wheels.
**Slow Driving:** Engage a low gear (such as L or first gear), keep the steering straight, and very slowly and smoothly accelerate onto the traction board. Avoid sudden acceleration to prevent the wheels from spinning again or the board from flying off.
**Retrieve Equipment:** After successfully getting out of the rut, stop the vehicle and retrieve the traction board.
