CAUTION

 Caution while towing

 Use extreme caution when towing the vehicle.

Avoid sudden starts or erratic driving maneuvers which place excessive

stress on the emergency towing eyelets and the cables or chains. Always

be cautious of the surroundings and other vehicles while towing.

 If the engine is not running, the power assist for the brakes and steering

will not function, making steering and braking more difficult.

 Installing towing eyelet to the vehicle

Make sure that towing eyelet is installed securely.

If not securely installed, towing eyelet may come loose during towing. This

may lead to accidents that cause serious injury or even death.

NOTICE

 To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing using a wheel-lift type

truck

 Do not tow the vehicle from the rear when the engine switch is in the

“LOCK” position or the key is removed. The steering lock mechanism is

not strong enough to hold the front wheels straight.

 When raising the vehicle, ensure adequate ground clearance for towing at

the opposite end of the raised vehicle. Without adequate clearance, the

vehicle could be damaged while being towed.

 To prevent body damage when towing with a sling-type truck

Do not tow with a sling-type truck, either from the front or rear.
