7-2. Steps to take in an emergency
Using a flatbed truck
If your Lexus is transported by a flat-
bed truck, it should be tied down at
the locations shown in the illustra-
tion.
If you use chains or cables to tie
down your vehicle, the angles
shaded in black must be 45.
Do not overly tighten the tie downs
or the vehicle may be damaged.
Emergency towing
If a tow truck is not available in an emergency, your vehicle may be tempo-
rarily towed using a cable or chain secured to the emergency towing eye-
let. This should only be attempted on hard surfaced roads for short
distances at low speeds.
A driver must be in the vehicle to steer and operate the brakes. The vehi-
cle' s wheels, drive train, axles, steering and brakes must be in good condi-
tion.
