

Do not tow with sling-type equipment.
This could damage your vehicle. Use
wheel-lift or flatbed equipment.



If the parking brake cannot be released
when towing the vehicle, transport the
vehicle with all front and rear wheels
raised off the ground as shown in the
figure. If the vehicle is towed without
raising the wheels off the ground, the
brake system could be damaged.

CAUTION



The towing eyelet should be used in an
emergency (to get the vehicle out of a
ditch or a snow bank, for example).



When using the towing eyelets, always
pull the cable or chain in a straight
direction with respect to the eyelet. Never
apply a sideways force.

NOTE

When towing with chain or cable, wrap
the chain or cable with a soft cloth near
the bumper to prevent damage to the
bumper.
