Reinstalling the clip
■ Front fog lights (if equipped)
Turn the steering wheel in the
opposite direction of the front fog
light that you wish to replace.
For example, if you wish to
replace the front fog light on the
right side, turn the steering wheel
to the left.
Remove the clip using a flathead
screwdriver wrapped in a rag.
Move section “A” of the fender
liner to the inner side of the vehi-
cle, partly removing it and
thereby allowing access to the
front fog light.

416 5-1. Essential information
Emergency towingIf a tow truck is not available, in an emergency your vehicle may be
temporarily towed using a cable or chain secured to the emergency
towing eyelet. This should only be attempted on hard surfaced roads
for short distances at low speeds.
A driver must be in the vehicle to steer and operate the brakes. The
vehicle’s wheels, drive train, axles, steering and brakes must be in
good condition.
Towing eyelet

420 5-1. Essential information
CAUTION
■Caution while towing
●Use extreme caution when towing the vehicle.
Avoid sudden starts or erratic driving maneuvers which place excessive
stress on the emergency towing eyelet and the cables or chains. Always
use caution for the surroundings and other vehicles while towing.
● If the engine is not running, the power assist for the brakes and steering
will not function, making steering and braking more difficult.
■ Installing towing eyelet to the vehicle
Make sure that towing eyelet is installed securely.
If not securely installed, towing eyelet may come loose during towing. This
may lead to accidents that cause serious injury or even death.
