  • Never tow with the front wheels on the ground or four wheels on the ground (forward or backward), as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the motor.

  • When towing this vehicle with the front wheels on towing dollies:

    • Place the power switch in the ON position. Secure the steering wheel in the straight-ahead position with a rope or similar device.

    • Place the shift lever in the N (Neutral) position.

  • When towing this vehicle with the rear wheels on the ground (if you do not use towing dollies): Always release the parking brake.
