7. The vehicle should be towed at a
speed of 15 mph (25 km/h) or less
within the distance of 12 miles
(20 km).
CAUTION
To avoid damage to your vehicle and
vehicle components when towing:
Always pull straight ahead when
using the towing hooks. Do not
pull from the side or at a vertical
angle.
Do not use the towing hooks to
pull a vehicle out of mud, sand or
other conditions from which the
vehicle cannot be driven out under
its own power.
Limit the vehicle speed to 10 mph
(15 km/h) and drive less than 1
mile (1.5 km) when towing to
avoid serious damage to the
reduction gear.
NOTICE
Before towing, check the reduction
gear for fluid leaks under your vehi -
cle. If the reduction gear fluid is
leaking, a flatbed equipment or
towing dolly must be used.
