Towing
rl
It the car needs to be towed, call a professional towingservice. Never tow the car behind another car with just
a rope or chain. lt is very dange.ous.
Emergency Towing
There are three popular methods of towing a car:
Flat-bed Equipmont-The operator loads the car on theback of a truck. This is the best way of transporting thecar.
Whsol Lift Equipment-The tow truck uses two oivot-ing arms that go under the tires (front or rear) and liftsthem otf the ground. The other two wheels remain onthe ground.
Sling-type Equipmont-The tow truck uses metal cableswith hooks on the ends. These hooks go around partsof the frame or suspension and the cables lift that endof the car off the ground. The car's suspension and bodvcan be seriously damaged if this method of towing is at-tempted.
It the car cannot be transponed by flat-bed, it should betowed with the tfont wheels oft the ground. lf due todamage. the car must be towed with the front wheelson the ground, do the tollowing:
Manual Transmission
a Release the parking brake,a Shift the transmission to Neutral.
Automatic Transmission
a Release the parking brake.a Start the engine.
a Shift to @ oosition, then to S position.
a Turn off the engine.
NOTICE: lmproper towing preparation will damage thetransmission. Follow the above procedure exactly. lf you
cannot shift the transmission or stan the engine (auto-
matic transmission), your car must be transDorted on aflat-bed.
a lt is best to tow the car no tarther than SO miles lgokm). and keep the speed below 3b mph (bE km/h).
NOTICE: Trying to litt or tow your car by the bumperswill cause serious damage. The bumpers are not designedto support the car's weight.
