Towing
If possible, always tow the car with the front wheels off the
ground. The tow truck driver should position wood spacer blocks
between your car's frame and the chains and lift straps, to avoid
damaging the bumper and the body.
Do not use the bumpers to lift the car or to support the car's
weight while towing. Check local regulations for towing. A chain
may be attached to the hooks shown in the picture. Do not attach
a tow bar to either bumper.
If the car is to be towed with the front wheels on the ground
observe the following precautions:
1. Wheels and axles must not be touching the body or frame.
2. Turn the ignition key to the I position and make sure the steer­
ing wheel turns freely.
3. Shift the transmission to NEUTRAL.
4. Release the parking brake.
5. DO NOT exceed 35 mph (55 km/h) or tow for distances of more
than 50 miles (80 km).

DO NOT push or tow a car to start it. The forward
surge when the engine starts could cause a collision. Also, under
some conditions, the catalytic converter could be damaged. A car
equipped with an automatic transmission cannot be started by
pushing or towing.
Towing a trailer
Towing a trailer with your car is not recommended.
