• Make sure the stuck vehicle is not loaded in excess of its GVWR

specified on the certification label.

• Always align the tow vehicle and stuck vehicle in a straight line

(within 10 degrees).

• Keep bystanders to the sides of the vehicle, at a distance of at least

twice the length of the recovery strap. This helps avoid injury from

the hazard of a recovery hook or strap breaking, or a vehicle lurching

into their path.

WRECKER TOWING

If you need to have your vehicle towed, contact a professional towing

service or, if you are a member of a roadside assistance program, your

roadside assistance service provider.

It is recommended that your vehicle be towed with a wheel lift or flatbed

equipment. Do not tow with a slingbelt. Ford Motor Company has not

approved a slingbelt towing procedure. If the vehicle is towed incorrectly,

or by any other means, vehicle damage may occur.
