Recreational Towing - Two-Wheel Drive Models - Jeep grand cherokee Owner's Manual

NOTE:
• When recreationally towing your vehicle, always fol-
low applicable state and provincial laws. Contact state
and provincial Highway Safety offices for additional
details.
• Vehicles equipped with Quadra-Lift™ must be placed
in Transport Mode before tying them down (from the
body) on a trailer or flatbed truck. Refer to "Quadra-
Lift™ – If Equipped" in "Starting and Operating" for
more information. If the vehicle cannot be placed in
Transport mode (for example, engine will not run),
tie-downs must be fastened to the axles (not to the
body). Failure to follow these instructions may cause
fault codes to be set and/or cause loss of proper
tie-down tension.

the dolly manufacturer's instructions.

3. Firmly apply the parking brake. Shift the transmission
into PARK.
