The vehicle may be towed with all of
the wheels on the ground and the
selector lever in position "N" for
distances up to 30 miles (50 km) (or
gearshift lever in neutral position for
distances up to 75 miles [120 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.
Do not tow with sling-type equipment.
Towing with sling-type equipment
over bumpy roads will damage radiator
and supports.
The use of wheel lift equipment will
damage engine oil pan.
Warning!
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.
Note:
To signal turns while being towed
with hazard flasher in use, turn key in
steering lock to position 2 and activate
combination switch for left or right
turn signal in usual manner - only the
selected turn signal.
Towing of 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.
Upon canceling the turn signal, all
four turn signals will operate again.
Important!
Flap removal: Insert finger in recess of
flap and pull flap out.
When transporting vehicle on flat bed
equipment, the front end of the vehicle
must be loaded first. Additional
ramping may be required for loading to
protect bumper fascia.
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.
