The vehicle may be towed with all
wheels on the ground and the selector
lever in position "N" for distances up
to 30 miles (50 km) and at a speed not
to exceed 30 mph (50 km/h).
Note:
To signal turns while being towed with
hazard warning 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 will operate.
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
harzard flasher will operate again.
Caution!
Do not tow with sling-type equipment.
Towing with sling-type equipment over
bumpy roads will damage radiator and
supports.
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.
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, dolly, or flat bed
equipment, with keyin steeringlock
turned to position 0.
Warning!
Flap removal: Insert finger in recess of
flap and pull flap out.
With the engine not running, there
is no power assistance for the
braking and steering systems. In
this case, if is important to keep in
mind that a considerably higher
degree of effort is necessary to
brake and steer the vehicle.
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.
