1) If the vehicle is being towed with the
rear wheels on the ground, be sure
the parking brake is released.
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.

pension components are damaged
or the vehicle is being towed with
the front wheels on the ground, use
a towing dolly under the front wheels.

place the ignition key in the "ACC"
position and put the transaxle in "N
(Neutral)".

CAUTION:
Do not tow with the key removed or
in the "LOCK" position when tow-
ing from the rear without a towing
dolly.
