For emergency towing when no commer-
cial tow vehicle is available, attach a tow
cable, chain or strap to one of the towing
hooks under the front/rear of your car. Do
not attempt to tow your vehicle in this
manner on any unpaved surface. This
may result in serious damage to your car.
Nor should it be attempted if the wheels,
drive train, axles, steering or brakes are
damaged. Before towing, be sure the
transaxle is in neutral and the key in
"ACC" (with the engine off) or in the "ON"
position (with the engine running). A
driver must be in the towed car to steer it
and operate the brakes.
NOTE:
Before towing, check the level of the
automatic transaxle fluid. If it is below
the "HOT" range on the dipstick, add
fluid. If you cannot add fluid, a towing
dolly must be used.
