•
Use only towing equipment
specifically designed for this
purpose, following the
instructions of the equipment
manufacturer. A separate safety
chain system must be used.
• For such towing, the parking
brake must be released, the
transmission must be in neutral
and the key switch turned to
the “
OFF ” position (not
“ LOCK ”).
• Towing attachments must be
made to main structural
members of the vehicle. Do not
attach to bumpers or associated
brackets.
•
Remember that the power
brake assist will not be
available when the engine is
inoperative.
