CAUTION! (Continued)

Always use wheel lift equipment when towing

from the front. The only other approved method of
towing is with a flatbed truck.

Do not tow the vehicle from the rear. Damage to

the rear sheet metal, liftgate and fascia will occur.

Do not push or tow this vehicle with another

vehicle as damage to the bumper fascia and trans-
mission may result.

If the vehicle being towed requires steering, the

ignition switch must be in the ON position, not in
the LOCK or ACC positions.

If it is necessary to use the accessories while being towed
(wipers, defrosters, etc.), the key must be in the ON
position, not the ACC position. Make certain the trans-
mission remains in NEUTRAL.

Towing Without The Ignition Key
Special care must be taken when the vehicle is towed
with the ignition in the OFF position. The only approved
method of towing without the ignition key is with a
flatbed truck. Proper towing equipment is necessary to
prevent damage to the vehicle.

transmission, is only permitted within the limitations
described in this section.
