If a tow truck is not available in an
emergency, your vehicle may be
temporarily towed using a cable or
chain secured to the emergency
towing eyelet(s). This should only
be attempted on hard surfaced
roads for short distances at under
18 mph (30 km/h).
A driver must be in the vehicle to
steer and operate the brakes. The
vehicle' s wheels, drive train, axles,
steering and brakes must be in
good condition.
Insert the mechanical key (→P.
52) into the groove and release
the claws. With the mechanical key
inserted, remove the eyelet cover
by pulling it towards you.
