Caution!
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.
If the vehicle is towed with the front
axle raised, the engine must be shut
off. Otherwise, the acceleration slip
regulation or the electronic stability
program will immediately be engaged
and will apply the rear wheel brakes.
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.
