CAUTION:
CAUTION:
o
o
When towing  the  2WD vehicle  with the
rear wheels  on  the ground,  the vehicle
should  be  towed   with  wheel  lift  type
truck.
Otherwise, the  CV  joint boot  can inter-
fere  with  the  towing  hook   caused  by
insufficient   clearance  resulting  in   CV
joint  boot  damage.
A  car with  an  automatic transaxle  should
never be towed from the rear  with the front
wheels on  the ground.  This can cause  se-
rious  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.

o
If the car is being towed with the front wheels
on the ground, be sure that the transaxle is
in neutral. Also, be sure that the ignition key
is in the "ACC" position. This is necessary to
prevent damage to the steering lock mecha-
nism, which is not designed to hold the front
wheels straight while the car is being towed.
If any  of the loaded  wheels or  suspension
components  are damaged,  a  towing dolly
must be  used.

Before   towing,   check   the   level   of  the
transaxle fluid. If it is below the "HOT" mark
on the dipstick, add fluid. If you cannot add
fluid,  a towing  dolly must  be  used as  de-
scribed  above.
