Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
When transporting the vehicle
While towing
When towing using a rope, avoid sudden starts, etc. which place excessive
stress on the towing hook and rope.
The towing hook or rope may become damaged, broken debris may hit people
and cause serious damage.
Do not turn the power switch off.
This may lead to an accident as the front wheels will be locked by the parking
lock.
Installing towing eyelets to the vehicle
Make sure that towing eyelets are installed securely.
If not securely installed, towing eyelets may come loose during towing.
To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing using a wheel-lift type truck
When raising the vehicle, ensure adequate ground clearance for towing at the
opposite end of the raised vehicle. Without adequate clearance, the vehicle
could be damaged while being towed.
To prevent body damage when towing with a sling-type truck
Do not tow with a sling-type truck, either from the front or rear.
Be sure to transport the vehicle with the
front wheels raised or with all four wheels
raised off the ground. If the vehicle is
towed with the front wheels contacting the
ground, the drivetrain and related parts
may be damaged or electricity generated
by the operation of the motor may cause a
fire to occur depending on the nature of the
damage or malfunction.
