If your vehicle needs to be towed,
call a professional towing service or
organization. Never tow your vehicle
with just a rope or chain. It is very
dangerous.
(On SH-AWD models)
The only way you can safely tow
your vehicle is with flat-bed
equipment. The operator will load
your vehicle on the back of a truck.
Any other method of towing will
damage the drive system. When you
contact the towing agency, inform
them a flat-bed is required.
Towing with only two tires on the
ground will damage parts of the all-
wheel-drive system. Your vehicle should
be transported on a flat-bed truck or
trailer.
(Execpt SH-AWD models)
There are two ways to tow your
vehicle:
Flat-bed Equipment
－ The operator
loads your vehicle on the back of a
truck. This is the best way to
transport your vehicle.
Wheel-lift Equipment
－ The tow
truck uses two pivoting arms that go
under the front tires and lift them off
the ground. The rear tires remain on
the ground. This is an acceptable
way to tow your vehicle.
If, due to damage, your vehicle must
be towed with the front wheels on
the ground, do this:
●
Start the engine.
●
Press on the brake pedal. Move
the shift lever through all its
positions.
●
Shift to D position for 5 seconds,
then to N.
●
Turn off the engine.
●
Release the parking brake.
●
Leave the ignition switch in the
ACCESSORY (I) position so the
steering wheel does not lock.
