Towing
If you need to have your vehicle towed,
contact a professional service. Your dealer
can provide you with detailed towing
instructions.
2-wheel drive (2WD) manual tran-saxle
Manual transaxle vehicles may be towed
using either of the following methods.
1) From the front, with the front wheels
lifted and the rear wheels on the
ground. Before towing, check that the
parking brake is released.
2) From the rear, with the rear wheels
lifted and the front wheels on the
ground, provided the steering and
drivetrain are in operational condition.
Before towing, check that transaxle is in
neutral, the steering wheel is unlocked
(vehicle without keyless push start sys-
tem - the ignition key should be in
“ACC” position) (vehicle with keyless
push start system - the ignition mode is
“ACC”), and the steering wheel is
secured with a clamping device
designed for towing service.
4-wheel drive (4WD)
Your vehicle should be towed under one of
the following conditions:
1) With all four wheels on a flat-bed truck.
2) With the front or rear wheels lifted and a
dolly under the other wheels.

brake support system, if your vehicle
is towed with the engine on, press
radar brake support OFF switch and

related to the system being turned on
may occur.
NOTICE

cle during towing, proper equip-
ment and towing procedures must
be used.
• Using the frame hook, tow your
vehicle on paved roads for short

enough to withstand shocks trans-
mitted from the front wheels during
towing. Always unlock the steering
wheel before towing.
