transaxle, shift the vehicle to SECOND (2).

3. Set the parking brake and then remove the key.

4. Clamp the steering wheel in a straight-ahead

position with a clamping device designed for towing.

Towing a Trailer

{

CAUTION:

If you do not use the correct equipment and
drive properly, you can lose control when you
pull a trailer. For example, if the trailer is too
heavy, the brakes may not work well — or even
at all. You and your passengers could be
seriously injured. You may also damage your
vehicle; the resulting repairs would not be
covered by your warranty. Pull a trailer only if
you have followed all the steps in this section.
Ask your dealer for advice and information
about towing a trailer with your vehicle.
