TOWING AND HOISTINGM1001000800380
TOWING THE VEHICLE BY A TOW TRUCK
.
This vehicle cannot be towed by a tow truck using
sling-type equipment (TYPE A) as illustrated; otherwise it
will damage the bumper and front end. If this vehicle is
towed, use wheel lift or flat bed equipment.
If the transmission is malfunctioning or damaged,
transport the vehicle with the driving wheels on a car-
riage (TYPE C, D or E) as illustrated.
If you tow the vehicles with an A/T with the driving
wheels on the ground (TYPE B) as illustrated, make
sure that the towing speed and distance given below
are never exceeded, causing damage to the transmis-
sion.
Towing speed: 50km/h
Towing distance: 30km
For the towing speed and the towing distance, follow
the local driving laws and regulations.
.
TOWING WITH FRONT WHEELS OFF THE
GROUND (TYPE C)
The vehicle may be towed on its rear wheels for extended dis-
tances provided the parking brake is released and gearshift
lever is in the "Neutral" position (M/T) or the selector lever is in
the "N" (NEUTRAL) position (A/T). It is recommended that vehi-
cles be towed using the front pickup whenever possible.
[For vehicles equipped with the traction control system
(TCL)]
If the vehicle is towed with the ignition key in the "ON"
position and only the front wheels or only the rear
wheels raised of the ground, a malfunction may occur
in the device

TOWING AND HOISTING
GENERAL00-27
TOWING WITH REAR WHEELS OFF THE
GROUND (TYPE B)
Place the gearshift lever in the "Neutral" position (M/T) or the
selector lever in the "N" (NEUTRAL) position (A/T). Turn the
ignition key to the "ACC" position and secure the steering
wheel in a straight-ahead position with a rope or tie-down strap.
Never place the ignition key in the "LOCK" position when tow-
ing.
Never tow an A/T vehicle with the rear wheels up (and
the front wheels on the ground) when the automatic
transmission fluid level is low. this may cause serious
and expensive damage to the transmission.
Do not use the steering column lock to secure the front
wheels for towing.
Make sure the transaxle is in Neutral if vehicle will have
drive wheels on the ground.
If these requirements cannot be met, the front wheels
must be placed on a tow dolly.
.
TOWING WHEN KEYS ARE NOT AVAILABLE
When a locked vehicle must be towed and keys are not avail-
able, the vehicle may be lifted and towed from the front, pro-
vided the parking brake is released. If not released, the rear
wheels should be placed on a tow dolly.
.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The following precautions should be taken when towing the
vehicle:
1. DO NOT LIFT OR TOW THE VEHICLE BY ATTACHING
TO OR WRAPPING AROUND THE BUMPER.
2. Any loose, protruding, or damaged parts such as hoods,
doors, fenders, trim, etc. should be secured or removed
prior to moving the vehicle.
