Jeep Grand Cherokee 2013 Operating Information Manual page 310

Without The Key Fob
Special care must be taken when the vehicle is
towed with the ignition in the LOCK/OFF posi-
tion. The only approved method of towing with-
out the key fob is with a flatbed truck. Proper
towing equipment is necessary to prevent dam-
age to the vehicle.
Four-Wheel Drive Models
The manufacturer recommends towing with all
wheels OFF the ground. Acceptable methods
are to tow the vehicle on a flatbed or with one
end of vehicle raised and the opposite end on a
towing dolly.
If flatbed equipment is not available, and the
transfer case is operable, the vehicle may be
towed (in the forward direction, with ALL wheels
on the ground), IF the transfer case is in NEU-
TRAL (N) and the transmission is in PARK.
Refer to "Recreational Towing" in "Starting And
Operating" for detailed instructions.

• Towing this vehicle in violation of the
above requirements can cause severe
transmission and/or transfer case dam-
age. Damage from improper towing is not
covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
