When towing your vehicle, all State (Pro-
vincial in Canada) and local regulations
for towing must be followed. Incorrect
towing equipment could damage your ve-
hicle. Towing instructions are available
from an INFINITI dealer. Local service op-
erators are generally familiar with the ap-
plicable laws and procedures for towing.
To assure proper towing and to prevent
accidental damage to your vehicle,
INFINITI recommends having a service op-
erator tow your vehicle. It is advisable to
have the service operator carefully read
the following precautions.
WARNINGO Never ride in a vehicle that is being
towed.
O Never get under your vehicle after it has
been lifted by a tow truck.
CAUTIONO When towing, make sure that the trans-
mission, axles, steering system and powertrain are in working condition. If
any unit is damaged, dollies must be
used.
O Always attach safety chains before
towing.
For information about towing your vehicle
behind a recreational vehicle (RV), refer to
ªFlat towingº in the ª9. Technical and
consumer informationº section of this
manual.
If needed, Roadside Assistance is avail-
able. Please see your Warranty Informa-
tion Booklet or Roadside Assistance I.D.
Card for the toll-free number to call (U.S.)
or Warranty Information Booklet (Canada).

INFINITI
Two-wheel drive (2WD) models INFINITI recommends that your vehicle be
towed with the driving (rear) wheels off SCE0386

the ground or place the vehicle on a flat
bed truck as illustrated.
CAUTION O Never tow automatic transmission
models with the rear wheels on the ground or four wheels on the ground
(forward or backward) as this may cause
serious and expensive damage to the
transmission. If it is necessary to tow the
vehicle with the front wheels raised, al-
ways use towing dollies under the rear
wheels.
O When towing rear wheel drive models
with the front wheels on the ground or
on towing dollies:
Turn the ignition key to the OFF position,
and secure the steering wheel in a
straight ahead position with a rope or
similar device. Never secure the steering
wheel by turning the ignition key to the
LOCK position. This may damage the
steering lock mechanism.
O If you have to tow manual transmission
models with the rear wheels on the
ground or four wheels on the ground (if
you do not use towing dollies):
O Always release the parking brake.
O Move the transmission shift lever to
the N (Neutral) position. SCE0387A

O Observe the following restricted towing
speeds and distances for manual trans-
mission models only:
Ð Speed: Below 60 MPH (95 km/h)
Ð Distance: Less than 500 miles (800
km)
If the speed or distance must necessarily
be greater, remove the propeller shaft be-
fore towing to prevent damage to the
transmission.
All-wheel drive (AWD) models INFINITI recommends that towing dollies
be used when towing your vehicle, or the
vehicle be placed on a flat bed truck as il-
lustrated.
CAUTION Never tow AWD models with any of the
wheels on the ground as this may cause se-
rious and expensive damage to the power
train. SCE0488

VEHICLE RECOVERY (Freeing a
stuck vehicle) After removing the front license plate (or
the bumper cover), securely install the re-
covery hook
q 1
. (Located with jacking
tools.)
Reinstall the license plate on the lower fit-
ting point. WARNING O Stand clear of a stuck vehicle.
O Do not spin your tires at high speed. This
could cause them to explode and result
in serious injury. Parts of your vehicle
could also overheat and be damaged.
CAUTION O Tow chains or cables must be attached
only to the vehicle recovery hooks or
main structural members of the vehicle.
Otherwise, the vehicle body will be dam-
aged.
O Do not use the vehicle tie downs to free a
vehicle stuck in sand, snow, mud, etc.
Never tow a vehicle using the vehicle tie
downs or recovery hooks.
O Always pull the cable straight out from
the front of the vehicle. Never pull the ve-
hicle at an angle. O Pulling devices should be routed so they
do not touch any part of the suspension,
steering, brake or cooling systems.
O Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas
straps are not recommended for use in
vehicle towing or recovery.
If your vehicle is stuck in sand, snow,
mud, etc., use the following procedure:
1. Turn off the Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) system.
2. Make sure the area in front and be-
hind the vehicle is clear of obstruc-
tions.
3. Turn the steering wheel right and left
to clear an area around the front tires.
4. Slowly rock the vehicle forward and
backward.
O Shift back and forth between R (re-
verse) and D (drive) (automatic trans-
mission models) or 1st (low) and R (re-
verse) (manual transmission models).
O Apply the accelerator as little as pos-
sible to maintain the rocking motion.SCE0524
