x If your vehicle is the one being towed, the ignition switch must be switched on to keep the steering wheel from locking. Also make sure that the turn signals, horn, windshield wipers, and windshield washers work properly.
x Since power steering does not work when the engine is switched off, more effort is needed to steer the vehicle.

x Read and heed the information and WARNINGS in the towing vehicle's owner's manual.
As driver of the towing vehicle
x Drive especially carefully and accelerate gently. Avoid sudden driving maneuvers.
