For 2WD vehicles, towing with the
front wheels on the ground (without
dollies) and the rear wheels o the
ground is acceptable. If any loaded
wheels or suspension components
are damaged or if towing with the rear
wheels on the ground is necessary,
use a towing dolly under the rear
wheels.
It is prohibited to allow passengers
to be seated in the towed vehicles.
Towing speed is not allowed to
exceed the safe speed or the
indicated road speed limit.
It is prohibited to use damaged
parts that are not firmly secured
onto the vehicle for towing. Failure
to comply with the above
precautions may result in personal
injury.
CAUTION
Guidelines for moving a short
distance before towing a vehicle:
• Only move within 394 inches (10
meters) at a speed of 5 km/hr or
slower, typically when loading
onto a tow truck or adjusting
position.
• Ensure the gear is in 'N' (neutral)
and the parking brake is o during
this movement. If unable to
operate the transmission and
parking brake, lift the rear wheels.
NOTE
Do not use lifting chain
equipment to tow the vehicle.
Instead, use plates or wheel lifting
devices.
If towing the vehicle from the front
is necessary, ensure the towing
device supports the rear wheels
o the ground. The rear wheels
should not touch the ground
during front towing. If the rear
wheels are on the ground during
towing from the front, it can cause
significant damage to the car's
engine.
!
NOTE
Avoid lifting the vehicle with the
tow fitting or body and chassis
parts to prevent potential damage
to the vehicle.
