Tools are located in the side of the cargo area.

When towing your vehicle, all State (Provincial in
Canada) and local regulations for towing must
be followed. Incorrect towing equipment could
damage your vehicle. Towing instructions are
available from a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
Local service operators are familiar with the
applicable laws and procedures for towing. To
assure proper towing and to prevent accidental
damage to your vehicle, NISSAN recommends
that you have a service operator tow your
vehicle. It is advisable to have the service
operator carefully read the following precau-
tions.

WARNING

. Never ride in a vehicle that is being

towed.

. Never get under your vehicle after it

has been lifted by a tow truck.

CAUTION

. When towing, make sure that the

axles, steering system and power
train are in working condition. If any
unit is damaged, dollies must be
used.

. Always attach safety chains before

towing.

For information about towing your vehicle behind
a recreational vehicle (RV), see “Flat towing” in
