Emergency towing precautions
CAUTION - Automatic
transmission
•
Turn the ignition switch to ACC so the
steering wheel isn’t locked.
• If the vehicle is being towed with
all four wheels on the ground, it
can be towed only from the front.
Be sure that the transmission is
in neutral. Do not tow at speeds
greater than 40 km/h (25 mph)
and for more than 25 km (15 mile).
Be sure the steering is unlocked
by placing the ignition switch in
the ACC position. A driver must
be in the towed vehicle to operate
the steering and brakes.
Before towing, check the auto-
matic transmission fluid leak
under your vehicle. If the auto-
matic transmission fluid is leak-
ing, a flatbed equipment or tow-
ing dolly must be used.
•
Place the transmission shift lever in N
(Neutral).
•
•
Release the parking bake.
Press the brake pedal with more force
than usual since you will have reduced
brake performance.
•
•
More steering effort will be required
because the power steering system
will be disabled.
If you are driving down a long hill, the
brakes may overheat and brake per-
formance will be reduced. Stop often
and let the brakes cool off.

the tie-down hooks or rear bumper
