WARNING
l
When the engine is not running, the brake
booster and power steering system do not
operate. This means higher brake depres-
sion force and higher steering effort are
required. Therefore, vehicle operation is
more difficult than usual.
CAUTION
l
Do not leave the ignition switch in the
“LOCK” position or the operation mode in
OFF. The steering wheel will lock, causing
loss of control.
3. Place the gearshift lever in the “N”
(Neutral) position (M/T), or the selector
lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position
(A/T or CVT).
4. Turn on the hazard warning lamps if re-
quired by law. (Follow the local driving
laws and regulations.)
5. During towing make sure that close con-
tact is maintained between the drivers of
both vehicles, and that the vehicles trav-
el at low speed.
CAUTION
l
The person in the vehicle being towed must
pay attention to the brake lamps of the tow-
ing vehicle and make sure the rope never be-
comes slack.
l
Avoid sudden braking, sudden acceleration
and sharp turning; such operation could
cause damage to the towing hooks or the tow
rope.
People in the vicinity could be injured as a
result.
l
When towing or being towed down a long
slope, the brakes may overheat reducing the
effectiveness. In this situation, have your ve-
hicle transported by a tow truck.
CAUTION

CVT is to be towed by another vehicle with
the all wheels on the ground, make sure that
the towing speed and distance given below
