instructions.

2. Drive the front wheels onto the tow dolly.
3. Firmly apply the parking brake. Place the transmission in PARK.
4. Properly secure the front wheels to the dolly, following the dolly manufacturer's

instructions.

5. Release the parking brake.

CAUTION!

• DO NOT flat tow this vehicle. Damage to the drivetrain will result. If this vehicle

requires towing, make sure the drive wheels are OFF the ground.

• Towing this vehicle in violation of the above requirements can cause severe

transmission damage. Damage from improper towing is not covered under the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
