start the Volt. This will wake up

next step.

Towing
Towing the Vehicle
Notice: Incorrectly towing a
disabled vehicle may cause
damage to the vehicle. The
disabled vehicle should be towed
on a flatbed car carrier. Use
care when there is low ground
clearance and/or special
equipment.
Attempting to pull the vehicle
onto a flatbed without following
the proper steps could damage
the vehicle.
Consult your dealer or a
professional towing service if the
disabled vehicle must be towed.
