648 WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
Four-Wheel Drive Models
The manufacturer recommends towing with all wheels
OFF the ground. Acceptable methods are to tow the
vehicle on a flatbed or with one end of vehicle raised and
the opposite end on a towing dolly.
If flatbed equipment is not available, and the transfer
case is operable, the vehicle may be towed (in the
forward direction, with ALL wheels on the ground), IF
the transfer case is in NEUTRAL (N) and the transmis-
sion is in PARK (for automatic transmissions) or in gear
(NOT in Neutral, for manual transmissions). Refer to
"Recreational Towing" in "Starting And Operating" for
further information and detailed instructions.
CAUTION!
• Front or rear wheel lifts should not be used. Inter-
nal transmission damage or transfer case will occur
if a front or rear wheel lift is used when towing.
• Failure to follow these towing methods can cause
severe damage to the transmission and/or transfer
case. Such damage is not covered by the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
