Consult your dealer or a professional towing service if
you need to have your disabled vehicle towed. See

Releasing Air-Operated Parking Brakes

special towing problem. If your vehicle has to be towed
because of a complete loss of air pressure from
both systems, the parking brakes will have automatically
engaged. The tow operator can release the brakes
manually by using the following steps. Then your vehicle
can be towed with all wheels or only the rear wheels
on the ground.
1. Block the wheels of the vehicle.
