properly with safety chains. Each safety
chain should be equally tightened and
care must be taken not to pull the chains
so tightly that the suspension bottoms out.

CAUTION

If your vehicle has a front under-
spoiler and rear underspoiler (both
optional), be careful not to scrape
them when placing the vehicle on
the carrier and when removing the
vehicle from the carrier.

& Towing with all wheels on the

ground

1. Release the parking brake and put the
transmission in the

“N”/neutral position.

2. The ignition switch should be in the

“ACC” position while the vehicle is being
towed.
3. Take up slack in the towline slowly to
prevent damage to the vehicle.

WARNING

. Never turn the ignition switch to

the

“LOCK” position while the

vehicle is being towed because
the steering wheel and the direc-
tion of the wheels will be locked.

. Remember that the brake booster

and power steering do not func-
tion when the engine is not
running. Because the engine is
turned off, it will take greater
effort to operate the brake pedal
and steering wheel.

CAUTION

. If transmission failure occurs,

transport your vehicle on a flat-
bed truck.

. Do not run the engine while being

towed using this method. Trans-
mission damage could result if
the vehicle is towed with the
engine running.

. For CVT models, the traveling

speed must be limited to less
than 20 mph (30 km/h) and the
traveling distance to less than 31
miles (50 km). For greater speeds
and distances, transport your
vehicle on a flat-bed truck.

In case of emergency
