The air suspension control and the ignition must be turned off
before being towed. Refer to Air suspension in the Driving
chapter.
On 4x2 vehicles, it is acceptable to tow the vehicle with the front wheels
on the ground (without dollies) and the rear wheels off the ground.
On 4x4 vehicles, it is required that your vehicle be towed with a wheel
lift and dollies or flatbed equipment with all the wheels off the ground.
If the vehicle is towed by other means or incorrectly, vehicle

truck operators. Have your tow truck operator refer to this manual for
proper hook-up and towing procedures for your vehicle.
