Caution!
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.
If the vehicle is towed with the front
axle raised, the engine must be shut
off. Otherwise, the ASR or ESP 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.
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.
Use wheel lift, dolly, or flat bed
equipment, with key in steering lock
turned to position 0.
Towing the Vehicle
Note:
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.
We recommend that the vehicle be
transported using flat bed equipment.
This method is preferable to other types
of towing.
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.
The vehicle may be towed with all
wheels on the ground and the selector
lever in position "N" for distances up to
Flap removal: Insert finger in recess of

hazard flasher will operate again.
