Emergency towing procedure

Release the parking brake.

Shift the shift lever to N.

Turn the engine switch to the “ACC” (engine off) or “ON” (engine
running) position.

CAUTION

Caution while towing

Use extreme caution when towing the vehicle.
Avoid sudden starts or erratic driving maneuvers which place excessive
stress on the emergency towing eyelets and the cables or chains.

If the engine is not running, the power assist for the brakes and steering
will not function, making steering and braking more difficult.
