WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
D080D03A-AAT
EMERGENCY TOWING
For emergency towing when no commercial tow
vehicle is available, attach a tow cable, chain or
strap to one of the towing hooks under the front/
rear of your car. Do not attempt to tow your
vehicle in this manner on any unpaved surface.
This may result in serious damage to your car.
Nor should it be attempted if the wheels, drive
train, axles, steering or brakes are damaged.
Before towing, be sure the transaxle is in neutral
and the key in "ACC" (with the engine off) or in
the "ON" position (with the engine running). A
driver must be in the towed car to steer it and
operate the brakes.
HLC4014
NOTE:
Before towing, check the level of the tran-
saxle fluid. If it is below the "HOT" range on
the dipstick, add fluid. If you cannot add
fluid, a towing dolly must be used as de-
scribed above.
