EMERGENCY TOWING
If towing service is not available in an
emergency, your vehicle may be tempo-
rarily towed by a cable secured to one of
the emergency towing eyes under the ve-
hicle.
Front Towing Eyes
The front towing eyes are provided under
the front bumper. A driver must be in the
vehicle to steer it and operate the brakes.
Towing in this manner may be done only
on hard-surfaced road for a short distance
and at low speeds.

Also the wheels, axles, drive train, steer-
ing and brakes must be all in a good con-
dition.
When towing the vehicle with a tow
rope, the vehicle can be damaged.
To reduce damage:
• Use towing eyes only if no other tow-
ing equipment is available.
• Only tow the vehicle from the front.
• Keep tow rope clear of bumper.
• Ensure tow rope is securely fixed to
towing eyes, at both ends. Check by
pulling on tow rope.
