If you have to tow an automatic transmission model
with four wheels on ground or tow an automatic
transmission model with front wheels raised (with rear
wheels on ground)
Observe the following restricted towing speeds, distances and rais-
ing heights.
+Speed: Below 50 km/h (30 MPH)
+Distance: Less than 65 km (40 miles)
+Do not raise the front end over!.
Wagon
!= 600 mm (23.62 in)
Hardtop
!= 500 mm (19.69 in)
If the speed, distance or height must necessarily be greater,
remove the propeller shaft beforehand to prevent damage to the
transmission.
CAUTION:
+Never tow your vehicle from the rear (i.e., backward) with
four wheels on the ground as this may cause serious and
expensive damage to the transmission.
+Be sure to place the transfer case shift lever into the ``2H''
position and the transmission shift lever into the neutral
(``N'') position if the vehicle is to be towed.
TOWING HOOKS
The towing hooks are provided only for emergency.
+Use the towing hooksonly, not other parts of the vehicle.
Otherwise, the vehicle body will be damaged.
+Use the towing hooksonlyto free a vehicle stuck in sand,
snow, mud, etc.Nevertow the vehicle for long distances using
only the towing hooks.
+The towing hook is under tremendous force when used to free
a stuck vehicle. Always pull the cable straight out from the front
or rear of the vehicle.Neverpull on the hook at a sideways
angle.
