NOTE:
Maintenance items with “$” should be
performed more frequently according
to “Maintenance under severe driving
conditions” (P.9-13).
(1) Periodic maintenance is not required.
(2) If using a car-top carrier, or driving
on rough or muddy roads, change (not
just inspect) oil at every 20,000 miles
(32,000 km) or 24 months. (3) Refer to “Tire rotation” under “Gen-
eral maintenance” (P.9-2).

CAPACITIES AND RECOMMENDED
FLUIDS/LUBRICANTS

10-22Technical and consumer information
Do not tow a trailer with your vehicle.Towing your vehicle with all four wheels
on the ground is sometimes called flat
towing. This method is sometimes used
when towing a vehicle behind a recrea-
tional vehicle, such as a motor home.
CAUTION
.Failure to follow these guidelines
can result in severe transmission
damage.
. Whenever flat towing your vehi-
cle, always tow forward, never
backward.
. DO NOT tow any automatic trans-
mission vehicle with all four
wheels on the ground (flat tow-
ing). Doing so WILL DAMAGE inter-
nal transmission parts due to lack
of transmission lubrication.
. For emergency towing proce-
dures refer to “Towing your vehi-
cle” (P.6-19) of this manual.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
To tow a vehicle equipped with an auto-
matic transmission, an appropriate vehi-
cle dolly MUSTbe placed under the towed
vehicle’s drive wheels. Alwaysfollow the
dolly manufacturer’s recommendations
when using their product.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION
. Always tow with the manual transmis-
sion in Neutral.
. Your vehicle speed should never ex-
ceed 70 MPH (112 km/h) when flat
towing your vehicle.
. After towing 500 miles, start and idle
the engine with the transmission in
Neutral for two minutes. Failure to idle
the engine after every 500 miles of
towing may cause damage to the
transmission’s internal parts.
