TOWING RECOMMENDED BY
NISSAN

Two-wheel drive models

NISSAN recommends that your vehicle be towed
with the driving (rear) wheels off the ground or
place the vehicle on a flat bed truck as illustrated.

CAUTION

Never tow automatic transmission

models with the rear wheels on the
ground or four wheels on the ground
(forward or backward), as this may
cause serious and expensive damage to
the transmission. If it is necessary to
tow the vehicle with the front wheels
raised always use towing dollies under
the rear wheels.

When towing automatic transmission

models with the front wheels on the
ground or on towing dollies:

– Place the ignition switch in the OFF

position and secure the steering
wheel in a straight-ahead position
with a rope or similar device. Never
secure the steering wheel by placing
the ignition switch in the LOCK posi-
tion. This may cause damage to the
lock mechanism (for models with a
steering lock mechanism).

If the speed or distance must necessarily be
greater, remove the propeller shaft before towing
to prevent damage to the transmission.
