CAUTION:
• Never tow a CVT model with the rear wheels raised and the front wheels on the ground. This may
cause serious and expensive damage to the transaxle. If it is necessary to tow the vehicle with the
rear wheels raised, always use towin g dollies under the front wheels.
• Never tow a CVT model from the rear (that is b ackward) with four wheels on the ground. This may
cause serious and expensive damage to the transaxle.
NISSAN recommends that the vehicle be towed with the driving
(front) wheels off the ground.
CAUTION:
• Always release the parking br ake when towing the vehicle
with the front wheels raised with the rear wheels on the
ground.
• When towing manual transaxle models with the front wheels on the ground (if a towing dolly is not used), turn the ignition
key to the OFF position, and secu re the steering wheel in the
straight-ahead position with a rope or similar device.
Move the shift lever to th e N (Neutral) position.

FRONT
WARNING:
• Stand clear of a stuck vehicle.
• Do not spin your tires at high speed. This could cause them to explode and result in serious injury.
Parts of your vehicle could also overheat and be damaged.
CAUTION:
• Tow chains or cables must be attached only to the vehicle recovery hooks or main structural mem-
bers of the vehicle. Otherwise, the vehicle body will be damaged.
• Do not use the vehicle tie downs to free a vehicle stuck in sand, snow, mud, etc. Never tow the vehi-
cle using the vehicle tie downs or recovery hooks.
• Always pull the cable straight out from the front of the vehicle. Never pull on the hook at an angle.
• Pulling devices should be routed so they do not touch any part of the suspension, steering, brake or
cooling systems.
• Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas straps ar e not recommended for use in vehicle towing or
recovery.
CVT
To tow a vehicle equipped with a CVT, an appropriate vehicle dolly MUST be placed under the towed vehicle's
drive wheels. Always follow the dolly manufacture's re commendations when using their product.
If the vehicle is stuck in sand, snow , mud, etc., use the following procedure:
1. Make sure the area in front and behind the vehicle is clear of obstructions.
2. Turn the steering wheel right and left to clear an area around the front tires.
