result in serious damage to your car.
Nor should towing be attempted if the wheels,
drive train, axles, steering or brakes  are dam-
aged. Before towing, be sure the transaxle is in
neutral and the key is in "ACC" (with the engine
off)  or in  the "ON"  position  (with the  engine
running).  A driver must be in the towed car to
steer it and operate the brakes.
CAUTION:
A car  with an  automatic  transaxle should
never be towed from the rear with the front
wheels on the ground. This can cause seri-
ous damage to the transaxle. If the car must
be towed from the rear, a towing dolly must
be used under the front wheels.
If the car is being towed with the rear wheels on
the ground,  be sure  the parking  brake  is re-
leased.
