Emergency Towing

Towing Description

We recommend that towing be done only
by an Authorized Mazda Dealer or a
commercial tow-truck service.
Proper lifting and towing are necessary to
prevent damage to the vehicle.
Government and local laws must be
followed.
A towed vehicle usually should have its
drive wheels (front wheels) off the
ground. If excessive damage or other
conditions prevent this, use wheel dollies.
When towing with the rear wheels on the
ground, release the parking brake.
7-26
Wheel dollies
CAUTION
Ø Do not tow the vehicle pointed
backward with driving wheels on
the ground. This may cause
internal damage to the transaxle.
Ø Do not tow with sling-type
equipment. This could damage
your vehicle. Use wheel-lift or
flatbed equipment.
