2006 INFINITI G35 towing dollies

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.)

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
