TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE
With Ignition Key
Manual Transmission
• Vehicle can be flat towed (all four wheels on the ground) with the transmission in
NEUTRAL.
• Vehicle can be towed with the front wheels elevated.
• Vehicle can be towed on a flatbed truck (all wheels off the ground).
NOTE:If it is necessary to use the accessories while being towed (wipers, defrosters, etc.), the keymust be in the ON/RUN position. Make certain the transmission remains in NEUTRAL.
Without The Ignition Key
• Special care must be taken when the vehicle is towed with the ignition in the
OFF/LOCK position. A dolly should be used under the front wheels if the rear
wheels are raised. Proper towing equipment is necessary to prevent damage to
the vehicle.
CAUTION!
• Failure to follow these towing methods can cause severe transmission dam-
age. Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
• If the vehicle being towed requires steering, the ignition switch must be in the
ON/RUN position.
• Do not attempt to use sling-type equipment when towing. When securing
the vehicle to a flatbed truck, do not attach to front or rear suspension com-
ponents. Damage to your vehicle may result from improper towing.
ENHANCED ACCIDENT RESPONSE SYSTEM
• In the event of an impact causing air bag deployment, if the communication net-
work remains intact, and the power remains intact, depending on the nature of
the event the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) will determine whether to have
the Enhanced Accident Response System perform the following functions:
• Cut off fuel to the engine.
• Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power or until the ignition key is
turned off.
• Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power or
until the ignition key is removed.
• Unlock the doors automatically.
