With the front wheels on the ground,

it is best to tow the vehicle no farther

than 50 miles (80 km), and keep the

speedbelow35mph(55km/h).

If your vehicle is equipped with a

front spoiler, remove it before

towing so it is not damaged.

Models equipped with the

keyless access system have an

engine start/stop button instead

of an ignition switch.

ACCESSORY Mode is the

equivalent of ACCESSORY (I).

Emergency Towing

Taking Care of the Unexpected

573

Trying to lift or tow your vehicle by the

bumpers will cause serious damage.

The bumpers are not designed to

support the vehicle’s weight.

Improper towing preparation will

damage the transmission. Follow the

above procedure exactly. If you cannot

shift the transmission or start the

engine (automatic transmission), your

vehicle must be transported with the

front wheels off the ground.

The steering system can be damaged if

the steering wheel is locked. Leave the

ignition switch in the ACCESSORY (I)

position, and make sure the steering

wheel turns freely before you begin

towing.

On models with the Keyless Access

system, the ENGINE START/STOP

BUTTON indicator will confirm that

the power mode is in the ACCESSORY

mode and that the steering lock is

released. If the steering wheel does not

turn freely, rotate the wheel right and

left while pressing the ENGINE

START/STOPBUTTON.This

information also appears on the multi-

information display (see page ).183
