A
vehicle ran fall from a car-carrier if it isn't
adequately secured.
This
can cause a ccollisiora,
serious personal injury and vehicle damage. The
vehicle should be tightly secured with chains or
steel cabIes before it is transported.
Donst use substitutes (ropes, leather straps,
canvas webbing, etc.) that can be
cut
by sharp
edges underneath the towed vehicle. Always use
2'-hooks inserted in the front T-h~ok slots or
Ha-hooks inserted in the rear R-hook slots. Never
use J-lho~ks~
They will damage drivetrain and
suspension components.
When your vehicle is being towed, have the ignition
key turned to the OFF position. The steering wheel
should be clamped in a straight-ahead position, with
a clamping device designed for towing service.
Do
not
use
the vehicle's steering column lock for this. The
transaxle should be in NEUTRAL (N) and the parking
brake released.
Don't have your vehicle towed on the drive wheels
unless you must. If the vehicle must be towed on the
drive wheels, be sure to follow the speed and distance
restrictions later in this section or your transaxle will be
damaged. If these limitations must be exceeded, then the
drive wheels have to be supported on a dolly.
