Towing

Towing










- Proper lifting and towing are necessary to prevent damage to the vehicle. State and local laws must be followed.
- A towed vehicle usually should have its rear wheels off the ground. If excessive damage or other conditions prevent this, use wheel dollies.

CAUTION: Do not tow the vehicle pointed forward with driving wheel on the ground. This may cause internal damage to the transmission.

CAUTION: Do not tow with sling-type equipment. This could damage your vehicle. Use wheel-lift or flat-bed equipment.

TIEDOWN HOOK

CAUTION: Do not use the tiedown hooks under the front and rear for towing. They are designed ONLY for tying down the vehicle when it is being transported. Using them for towing will damage the bumper.

1. Remove the tiedown eyelet from trunk.







2. Wrap a lug wrench with a soft cloth to prevent damage to the bumper and open the cap located on the front and rear bumper.

CAUTION: The cap cannot be completely removed. Do not use excessive force as it may damage the cap or scratch the painted bumper surface.







3. Securely install the tiedown eyelet using the lug wrench.







4. Hook the tying rope to the tiedown eyelet.

CAUTION: If the tiedown eyelet is not securely tightened, it may loosen or disengage from the bumper when tying down the vehicle. Make sure that the tiedown eyelet is securely tightened to the bumper.
