Owner`s manual
A
CAUTION:
A
vehicle can fall from
a
car
carrier
if
it
isn’t
adequately secured. This can cause
a
collision,
serious personal injury and vehicle damage. The
vehicle should be tightly secured with chains
or
steel cables before it
is
transported.
Don’t use substitutes (ropes, leather straps,
canvas webbing, etc.) that can
be
cut
by
sharp
edges underneath the towed vehicle. Always use
T-hooks inserted in the front
T-hook
slots
or
R-hooks inserted in the rear R-hook
slots.
Never
use
J-hooks.
They will damage drivetrain
and
suspension components.
When
your vehicle
is
being towed,
have
the ignition key
turned to
the
OFF
position.
The
steering wheel should
be
clamped
in
a
straight-ahead position,
with
a
clamping
device designed for towing service.
Do
not use the
vehicle’s steering column lock for this.
The
transaxle
should
be
in
NEUTRAL
(N) and the parking brake
released.
Don’t have your vehicle towed on the drive wheels
unless you
must.
If
the
vehicle must be towed on the
drive wheels,
be
sure
to
follow the speed and distance
restrictions later in this section or your transaxle will be
damaged.
If
these limitations must
be
exceeded, then the
drive wheels have to be supported on a dolly.
