CAUTION!

Do not use sling type equipment when towing.

Damage to the fascia will occur.

When securing the vehicle to a flatbed truck, do

not attach to front or rear suspension components.
Damage to your vehicle may result from improper
towing.

Do not push or tow this vehicle with another

vehicle as damage to the bumper fascia and trans-
mission may result.

If the vehicle being towed requires steering, the

ignition switch must be in the ON/RUN position,
not the LOCK or ACC positions.

The manufacturer recommends towing your vehicle with
all four wheels OFF the ground using a flatbed. If flatbed
equipment is not available, and the transmission is
operable, the vehicle may be flat towed (with all four
wheels on the ground) under the following conditions:

• The shift lever must be in NEUTRAL.
• The towing distance to be traveled must not exceed

15 miles (24 km).

• The towing speed must not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h).

If the transmission is not operable, or the vehicle must
be towed faster than 25 mph (40 km/h) or farther than
15 miles (24 km), it must be towed with the front
wheels OFF the ground (using a flatbed truck, or wheel
lift equipment with the front wheels raised).
