CAUTION:
If the car is being towed with all four wheels
on the ground, it can be towed only from the
front. Be sure that the transaxle is in neutral.
Do not tow at speeds greater than 30 mph
(50
km/h) and for more than 15 miles (25
HXD370
km). Be sure the steering is unlocked by
placing the key in the "ACC" position. A
driver must be in the towed vehicle to
operate the steering and brakes.
For emergency towing when no commercial
tow vehicle is available, attach a tow cable,
chain or strap to one of the towing hooks under
the front/rear of your vehicle. Do not attempt to
tow your vehicle in this manner on any unpaved
surface. This could result in serious damage to
your vehicle.

never be towed from the rear with the front
wheels on the ground. This can cause se-
rious damage to the transaxle.
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 vehicle
to steer it and operate the brakes.
