CAUTION!

Towing should only be done by a professional

tow service particularly if it will involve towing
on winding roads, hills or heavy traffic. If you
have any doubts, use a professional tow service.

Towing—front wheel lift
Place the gearshift lever (manual transaxle) to Neutral or
the selector lever (automatic transaxle) in the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position. Release the parking brake.

Turn the ignition key to the “ACC” position and secure
the steering wheel in a straight-ahead position with a
rope or similar device. Never place the ignition key in the
