IN CASE OF EMERGENCY 433
Four–Wheel Drive Models
The manufacturer recommends towing with all wheels OFF
the ground. Acceptable methods are to tow the vehicle on a
flatbed or with one end of the vehicle raised and the opposite
end on a towing dolly.
If flatbed equipment is not available and the transfer case is
oper
able, the vehicle may be towed (in the forward direction,
with ALL wheels on the ground), IF the transfer case is in
NEUTRAL (N) and the transmission is in PARK (P) (for
automatic transmissions) or in gear (NOT in NEUTRAL, for
manual transmissions). Refer to “Recreational Towing” in
“Starting And Operating” for detailed instructions.
CAUTION!
• D
o not use sling type equipment when towing. Vehicle
dam
age may occur.
• When securing the vehicle to a flatbed truck, do not
att
ach to front or rear suspension components. Damage
to your vehicle may result from improper towing.
CAUTION!
• Front or rear wheel lifts must not be used (if the
rem
aining wheels are on the ground). Internal damage
to the transmission or transfer case will occur if a front
or rear wheel lift is used when towing.
• Towing this vehicle in violation of the above require-
men
ts can cause severe transmission and/or transfer
case
damage. Damage from improper towing is not
covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
