What to do in an emergency
Emergency towing precautions
Turn the ignition switch to ACC so
the steering wheel isn't locked.
Place the transmission shift lever
in N (Neutral).
Release the parking bake.
Press the brake pedal with more
force than normal since you will
have reduced brake performance.
More steering effort will be
required because the power
steering system will be disabled.
If you are driving down a long hill,
the brakes may overheat and
brake performance will be
reduced. Stop often and let the
brakes cool off.
