A vehicle with an automatic transaxle
should never be towed from the rear
with the front wheels on the ground.
This can cause serious damage to
the transaxle. Be sure to use a towing
dolly under the front wheels.

be towed with all the wheels off the
ground.

For emergency towing when no com-
mercial tow vehicle is available, attach
a tow cable, chain or strap to one of the
towing hooks under the front/rear of
your car.
Do not attempt to tow your vehicle in
this manner on any unpaved surface.
This could result in serious damage to
your car.
Nor should towing be attempted if the
wheels, drive train, axles, steering or
brakes are damaged. Before towing,
be sure the transaxle is in neutral and
the key is in "ACC" (with the engine off)
or in the "ON" position (with the engine
running). A driver must be in the towed
car to steer it and operate the brakes.
NOTE:
Before towing, check the level of
the automatic transaxle fluid. If it is
below the "HOT" range on the dip-
stick, add fluid. If you cannot add
fluid, a towing dolly must be used.
