Towing Your Vehicle Behind a Motorhome
Start the engine.
Press on the brake pedal. Shift the
lever through all the positions (P,
R, N, D, 2,1)
Shift to D, then to N. Let the
engine run for three minutes, then
turn off the engine.
Release the parking brake.
Leave the ignition switch in
ACCESSORY (I) so the steering-
wheel does not lock. Make sure
the radio and any items plugged
into the accessory power sockets
are turned off so you do not run
down the battery.
Extended Towing
If you tow more than 8 hours in one
day, repeat the above procedure at
least every 8 hours, (when you stop
for fuel, etc.)
The steering system can be damaged if
the steering wheel is locked. Leave the
ignition switch in Accessory (I), and
make sure the steering wheel turns
freelv before you begin towing.
Failure to follow the above instructions
exactly will result in severe automatic
transmission damage. If vou cannot
shift the transmission or start the
engine, your vehicle must be
transported on a flat-bed truck or
trailer.
Severe automatic transmission damage
will occur if the vehicle is shifted from
reverse to neutral and then towed with
the drive wheels on the ground.
If you tow a CR-V with an automatic
transmission, the transmission fluid
must be changed every two years or
30,000 miles (50,000 km), whichever
comes first.
