Vehicle Recovery Tow Points
Your vehicle is equipped with Vehicle Recovery Points that can be used to recover a disabled
vehicle, located on the underbody of the vehicle.
NOTE:
• Ensure that the towing service tow hooks are properly seated and secured in the attachment
points.
• This recovery tow feature should be used by a trained professional only.
• Use approved receptacle location to free the disabled vehicle from its environment.
CAUTION!
Recovery feature:
• Is to be used by a professional ONLY.
• Is used only to provide recovery of the vehicle.
• Is NOT to be used to recover secondary vehicle.
• Is NOT to be used for transporting the vehicle over the road, i.e. “Flat Towing”.
Recovery load should:
• Be applied at constant speed.
• Be applied parallel to the center line of the length of the vehicle.
• Not be an abrupt acceleration.
If you must use the accessories (wipers, defrosters, etc.) while being towed, the ignition must be
in the ON/RUN mode, not the ACC mode.
NOTE:
The Safehold feature will engage the Electric Park Brake whenever the driver's door is opened (if the
ignition is ON, transmission is not in PARK, and brake pedal is released). If you are towing this vehicle
with the ignition in the ON/RUN mode, you must manually disable the Electric Park Brake each time
the driver's door is opened, by pressing the brake pedal and then releasing the EPB.
If the key fob is unavailable, or the vehicle's battery is discharged, refer to “Manual Park Release” in
this section for instructions on shifting the transmission out of PARK in order to move the vehicle.
