When trouble arises
When using a flatbed truck to transport the vehicle, use tire strapping belts. Refer
to the owner’s manual of the flatbed truck for the tire strapping method.
In order to suppress vehicle movement during transportation, set the parking
brake and turn the engine switch off.
If a tow truck is not available in an emergency, your vehicle may be temporarily
towed using cables or chains secured to the emergency towing hooks. This
should only be attempted on hard surfaced roads for at most 50 miles (80 km)
at under 18 mph (30 km/h).
A driver must be in the vehicle to steer and operate the brakes. The vehicle’s
wheels, drive train, axles, steering and brakes must be in good condition.
