Before towing, check the level of the tran-
saxle 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.
For emergency towing when no commercial
tow vehicle is available, attach a tow cable,
chain or strap to one of the tie-down hooks
under the front of your car. Do not attempt to
tow your vehicle in this manner on any unpaved
surface. This could result in serious damage to
your car.
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.
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.
If the car is being towed with the rear wheels on
the ground, be sure the parking brake is re-
leased.
