On 4x4 vehicles, it is recommended that your vehicle be towed with a
wheel lift and dollies or flatbed equipment with all the wheels off the
ground.
If the vehicle is towed by other means or incorrectly, vehicle
damage may occur.
In case of a roadside emergency with a disabled vehicle (without access
to wheel dollies, car hauling trailer or flatbed transport vehicle) your
vehicle (regardless of powertrain configuration) can be flat towed (all
wheels on the ground) under the following conditions:
²Place the transmission in N (Neutral).
² Maximum speed is 56 km/h (35 mph).
² Maximum distance is 80 km (50 miles).
Mazda provides a towing manual for all authorized tow truck operators.
Have your tow truck operator refer to this manual for proper hook-up
and towing procedures for your vehicle.
