µThe operator
loads your vehicle on the back of a
truck. If your vehicle needs to be towed,
call a prof essional towing service or
organization. Never tow your vehicle
with just a rope or chain. It is very
dangerous.
The tow
truck uses two pivoting arms that go
under the f ront tyres and lif t them
of f the ground. The other two rear
tyres remain on the ground. There are three popular types of
prof essional towing equipment.
The tow
truck uses metal cables with hooks
on the ends. These hooks go around
parts of the f rame or suspension andthe cables lif t that end of the vehicle
of f the ground. Your vehicle’s
suspension and body can be
seriously damaged.
If , due to damage, your vehicle must
be towed with the f ront wheels on
the ground, do the f ollowing:
Release the parking brake.Release the parking brake.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON
(II) position.
Shif t to N.
Make sure that the gear position
indicator shows N.
Turn the ignition switch to the
ACCESSORY (I) position.
Shif t the transmission to neutral.
Start the engine.
Press on the brake pedal. Move
the shif t lever through all its
positions.
Shif t to D position and hold f or 5
seconds, then to N.
Turn of f the engine.
Leave the ignition switch in the
ACCESSORY (I) position so the
steering wheel does not lock. Release the parking brake.

							Trying to lif t or tow your vehicle by
the bumpers will cause serious
damage. The bumpers are not
designed to support the vehicle’s
weight. The steering system can be
damaged if the steering wheel is
locked. Leave the ignition switch in
the ACCESSORY (I) position, and
make sure the steering wheel turns
f reely bef ore you begin towing. If your vehicle is equipped with a
f ront spoiler, remove it bef ore
towing so it is not damaged.
Do not tie down the vehicle at an
angle with which the towing cables
hit against the vehicle’s f ront
bumper. To avoid your vehicle f rom
damaging, protect the f ront bumper
with a tape.
If you decide to tow your vehicle
with all f our wheels on the ground,
make sure you use a properly-
designed and attached tow bar.
Prepare the vehicle for towing as
described above, and leave the
ignition switch in the ACCESSORY
(I) position so the steering wheel
does not lock. Make sure the radio
and any electrical accessories are
turned of f so they do not run down
the battery. Improper towing preparation will
damage the transmission. Follow the
aboveprocedureexactly.If you
cannot shif t the transmission or start
the engine (automatic transmission),
your vehicle must be transported
with the f ront wheels of f the ground.
If the gear position indicator does
not show N with the ignition switch
in the ON (II) position, the
transmission may not be shif ted to
neutral. In this case, your vehicle
must be transported with the f ront
wheels of f the ground.
With the f ront wheels on the ground,
it is best to tow the vehicle no farther
than 80 km (50 miles), and keep the
speed below 55 km/h (35 mph).

							If your vehicle gets stuck in sand,
mud, or snow, call a towing service
to pull it out (see the previous page).
For very short distances, such as
f reeing the vehicle, you can use
the detachable f ront towing hook
equipped with your vehicle. Make
sure to use the properly-designed
and attached towing equipment.
To attach the front towing hook on
the lef t of the f ront bumper on your
vehicle:
Take the front towing hook, the
wheel nut wrench and the f lat-
tipped screwdriver out of the tool
kit bag in the lef t side storage in
the luggage area.Remove the cover f rom the
bumper by pushing the lower part
of the cover with your f inger.

							Trying to lif t or tow your vehicle by
the bumpers will cause serious
damage. The bumpers are not
designed to support the vehicle’s
weight.
If you slip the clutch f or a long time
while trying to get unstuck, you may
overheat and damage the
transmission. Use a tow service to
prevent transmission damage.
To avoid damage to your vehicle, use
the front towing hook for straight,
f lat ground towing only. Do not tow
at an angle. This hook should not be
used f or open-road towing. Screw the f ront towing hook into
the bolt hole behind the bumper
through the opening and tighten
the hook securely by the wheel
nut wrench. 3.
