If your vehicle needs to be towed,
call a professional towing service or
an organization. Never tow your
vehicle with just a rope or chain. It is
very dangerous.

There are two ways to tow your
vehicle:

The operator

loads your vehicle on the back of a
truck.

The tow

truck uses two pivoting arms that go
under the tires (front or rear) and lift
them off the ground. The other two
tires remain on the ground.

Release the parking brake.
Start the engine.
Shift to D, then to N.

If, due to damage, your vehicle must
be towed with the front wheels on
the ground, do the following:

Turn off the engine.
Leave the ignition switch in the
ACCESSORY (I) position so the
steering wheel does not lock.
