Towing
If you need to have your vehicle towed,
contact a professional service. An autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer can provide you with
detailed towing instructions.
2-wheel drive (2WD) CVT
CVT vehicles may be towed using either of
the following methods.
1) From the front, with the front wheels
lifted and the rear wheels on the
ground. Before towing, make sure that
the parking brake is released.
2) From the rear, with the rear wheels
lifted and a dolly under the front wheels.
2-wheel drive (2WD) manual tran-
saxle
Manual transaxle vehicles may be towed
using either of the following methods.
1) From the front, with the front wheels
lifted and the rear wheels on the
ground. Before towing, check that the
parking brake is released.
2) From the rear, with the rear wheels
lifted and the front wheels on the
ground, provided the steering and
drivetrain are in operational condition.
Before towing, check that transaxle is in
neutral, the steering wheel is unlocked
(the ignition key should be in “ACC”
position), and the steering wheel is
secured with a clamping device
designed for towing service.
WARNING
Never connect the jump lead directly
to the negative (–) terminal of the dis-
charged battery, or an explosion may
occur.
CAUTION
Connect the jump lead to the engine
mount bolt securely. If the jump lead
disconnects from the engine mount
bolt because of vibration at the start
of the engine, the jump lead could be
caught in the drive belts.
NOTICE
Observe the following instructions
when towing your vehicle.
• To help avoid damage to your vehi-
cle during towing, proper equip-
ment and towing procedures must
be used.
• Using the frame hook, tow your
vehicle on paved roads for short
distances at low speed.
NOTICE
Towing your vehicle with the front
wheels on the ground can result in
damage to the CVT.
NOTICE
The steering column is not strong
enough to withstand shocks trans-
mitted from the front wheels during
towing. Always unlock the steering
wheel before towing.
