Towing with the front wheels raised off the ground
WARNING
Never tow manual transmission AWD vehicles with the front
wheels raised off the ground while the rear wheels are on the
ground. This will cause the vehicle to spin away due to the opera-
tion or deterioration of the viscous coupling.
CAUTION
When transmission failure occurs, transport your vehicle on a
flat-bed truck.
