Proper towing or lifting equipment is required to prevent
damage to your vehicle. Use only tow bars and other
equipment designed for this purpose, following equipment
manufacturer ’s instructions. Use of safety chains is man-
datory. Attach a tow bar or other towing device to main
structural members of the vehicle, not to bumpers or
associated brackets. State and local laws regarding vehicles
under tow must be observed. NOTE:
•
You must ensure that the Auto Park Brake feature is
disabled before towing this vehicle (if rear wheels are on
the ground), to avoid inadvertent Electric Park Brake
engagement. The Auto Park Brake feature is enabled or
disabled via the customer programmable features in the
Uconnect Settings.
• Vehicles with a discharged battery or total electrical
failure when the Electric Parking Brake (EPB) is en-
gaged, will need a wheel dolly or jack to raise the rear
wheels off the ground when moving the vehicle onto a
flatbed.
