Avoid staggered towing and be
careful that the towing strap is

taut before starting to drive the vehicle
doing the towing.

Use only a nylon towing strap to tow
the vehicle, since the inherent resil-
ience of this material helps protect both
vehicles from sudden jerking move-
ments.

The towed vehicle should always
be the lighter of the two vehicles.

If this is not the case, it will not be pos-
sible to control vehicle handling.

Never attempt to use your vehicle to
push another car, since damage to the
energy-absorbing bumpers could
result.
