• For vehicles with roof rack anchors,
make sure the anchors are covered with

properly secure cargo can allow
the cargo to fly off the vehicle and
hit others, causing personal injury
or property damage.
• Mount cargo securely and avoid
abrupt maneuvers such as jackrab-
bit starts, sharp turns, fast corner-
ing and sudden braking. Check
periodically to make sure that

Frame Hooks

It is not recommended to use the frame
hooks for towing another vehicle. Your
vehicle was originally designed to be
towed on the road in case of emergency
towing. If your vehicle needs to be towed in
an emergency, refer to "Towing" in "EMER-
GENCY SERVICE" section.
WARNING
Observe the following instructions
when using frame hooks. The towing
hook or vehicle body may break and
cause serious injury or damage.
• Do not use the frame hooks for
towing another vehicle.
• Avoid pulling the vehicle to get out
of severe snowy, muddy or sandy
conditions, sudden starts or erratic
driving maneuvers which could
cause excessive stress on the tow-
ing hook.
In such case, we recommend that
you contact a professional service.
