WA R N I N G
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
■When towing the vehicle
Be sure to transport the vehicle with
the front wheels raised or with all four wheels raised off the ground. If the
vehicle is towed with the front wheels
contacting the ground, the drivetrain and related parts may be damaged.
■While towing
●When towing using cables or
chains, avoid sudden starts, etc.
which place excessive stress on the towing eyelets, cables or chains.
The towing eyelets, cables or
chains may become damaged, bro- ken debris may hit people, and
cause serious damage.
●Do not turn the engine switch off.
There is a possibility that the steer-
ing wheel is locked and cannot be operated.
■Installing towing eyelets to the vehicle
Make sure that towing eyelets are
installed securely. If not securely installed, towing eye-
lets may come loose during towing.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the vehicle
when towing using a wheel-lift type truck
●Vehicles without a smart entry &
start system: Do not tow the vehicle from the rear when the engine
switch is off or the key is removed.
The steering lock mechanism is not strong enough to hold the front
wheels straight.
●Vehicles with a smart entry & start
system: Do not tow the vehicle from
the rear when the engine switch is off. The steering lock mechanism is
not strong enough to hold the front
wheels straight.
●When raising the vehicle, ensure
adequate ground clearance for tow- ing at the opposite end of the raised
vehicle. Without adequate clear-
ance, the vehicle could be dam- aged while being towed.
