CAUTION

Never tow Continuously Variable Trans-

mission (CVT) models with the front

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 nec-

essary to tow the vehicle with the rear

wheels raised always use towing dollies

under the front wheels.

When towing Continuously Variable

Transmission (CVT) models with the

front wheels on towing dollies, or when

towing manual transmission models

with the front wheels on the ground:

– Turn the ignition key to the OFF po-

sition, and secure the steering wheel

in a straight-ahead position with a

rope or similar device. Never secure

the steering wheel by turning the ig-

nition key to the LOCK position. This

may damage the steering lock

mechanism.

– Move the gearshift lever to the N

(Neutral) position.

When towing Continuously Variable

Transmission (CVT) or manual trans-

mission models with the rear wheels on

the ground (if you do not use towing

dollies): Always release the parking

brake.
