Emergency towing precautions
CAUTION - Automatic
transmission
Place the ignition switch in ACC so the
steering wheel isn’t locked.
•  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  transmission is  in
neutral.  Be  sure  the  steering  is
unlocked  by placing  the  ignition
switch  in   the  ACC   position.  A
driver must be  in the towed vehi-
cle  to  operate  the  steering  and
brakes.
Place the  transmission shift lever in  N
(Neutral).
Release the parking brake.
Press the brake  pedal with more force
than   normal    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.
To  avoid  serious damage  to  the
automatic transmission,  limit the
vehicle speed to 10 mph (15 km/h)
and
drive  less than  1  mile  (1.5
km) when towing.
Before  towing,   check  the  auto-
matic transmission for fluid leaks
under  your  vehicle.  If  the  auto-
matic  transmission fluid  is  leak-
ing, flatbed  equipment  or a  tow-
ing dolly must be used.
