30
miles (50 km) and at a speed not to
exceed 30 mph (50 km/h).
To positively avoid a possibility of
damage to the transmission, however,
we recommend to disconnect the drive
shaft at the rear axle drive flange on
any towing beyond a short tow to a
nearby garage.
Upon canceling the turn signal, the
hazard flasher will operate again.
Caution!
If the vehicle is towed with the front
axle raised, the key must not be in
steering lock position 2. Otherwise, the
acceleration slip control will
immediately be engaged and will apply
the rear wheel brakes.
Do not tow with sling-type equipment.
Towing with sling-type equipment over
bumpy roads will damage radiator and
supports.
Towing the Vehicle
The rear towing eye is located at the
right, below the bumper. The front
towing eye is located on the passenger
side behind a flap in the bumper panel.
Use wheel lift or flat bed equipment.
Note:
With the engine not running, there is
no power assistance for the braking and
steering systems. In this case, it is
important to keep in mind that a
considerably higher degree of effort is
necessary to brake and steer the
vehicle.
Flap removal: Insert finger in recess of
flap and pull flap out.
Flap installation: Engage flap at bottom
and press in top securely
We recommend that the vehicle be
transported using flat bed equipment.
This method is preferable to other types
of towing.
