A WORD ABOUT SAFETY
The following precautions must be followed when jacking up
the vehicle.
1. Block the wheels.
2. Use only the specified jacking positions.
3. Support the vehicle with safety stands.
Start the engine only after making certain the engine compart-
ment is clear of tools and people.
PREPARATION OF TOOLS AND MEASURING
EQUIPMENT
Be sure that all necessary tools and measuring equipment are
available before starting any work.
SPECIAL TOOLS
Use special tools when they are required.
REMOVAL OF PARTS
While correcting a problem, try also to determine its cause.
Begin work only after first learning which parts and subassem-
blies must be removed and disassembled for replacement or
repair.
DISASSEMBLY
If the disassembly procedure is complex, requiring many parts
to be disassembled, all parts should be disassembled in a way
that will not affect their performance or external appearance
and identified so that reassembly can be performed easily and
efficiently.

TOWING
Proper towing equipment is necessary to prevent damage to
the vehicle.
Y
Laws and regulations applicable to vehicles in tow must al-
ways be observed.
As a general rule, towed vehicles should be pulled with the
driving wheels off the ground. If excessive damage or other
conditions prevent towing the vehicle with the driving wheels
off the ground, use wheel dollies.
With either automatic or manual transaxle:
1. Set the ignition switch in the ACC position;
2. Place the selector lever or shift lever in N (Neutral);
3. Release the parking brake.
Caution
l Do not tow the vehicle backward with driving wheels
on the ground. This may cause internal damage to
the transaxles.
l Do not use the hook loops under the front and rear
of the vehicle for towing purposes. These hook
loops are designed ONLY for transport tie-down. If
tie-down hook loops are used for towing, the
front/rear bumper will be damaged.
