Towing with a wheel-lift type truck from the rear
NOTICE
■
To prevent causing serious damage to the transmission
(automatic transmission)
Never tow this vehicle from the rear with the front wheels on the ground.
■
To prevent damaging the vehicle (manual transmission)
Do not tow the vehicle when the engine switch is in "LOCK" position or key
removed.
The steering lock mechanism is not strong enough to hold the front wheels
straight.
Using a flat bed truck
Automatic transmission: Use a
towing dolly under the front
wheels.
Manual transmission: We recom-
mend to use a towing dolly under
the front wheels.
When not using a towing dolly,
turn the engine switch to the
"ACC" position and shift the shift
lever to N.
If you use chains or cables to tie
down your vehicle, the angles
shaded in black must be 45°.
Do not overly tighten the tie
downs or the vehicle may be
damaged.
