Tow Eye Usage Precautions
Tow Eye Warning Label
Tow Eye Installation
The front tow eye receptacle is located behind a
door on the passenger’s side of the fascia/
bumper.
To install the tow eye, open the door using the
vehicle key or a small screwdriver. Thread the tow
eye into the receptacle, making sure it is fully
tightened.
CAUTION!

The tow eye must only be used for roadside
emergencies. Use with an appropriate device
in accordance with highway code (a rigid bar)
to maneuver the vehicle in preparation for
transport via a tow truck.

The tow eye must not be used to move
the vehicle off the road or where there are
obstacles.

Do not use the tow eyes for tow truck hookup
or highway towing.

Do not use the tow eye to free a stuck vehicle
Ú
page 339.

Damage to your vehicle may occur if these
guidelines are not followed
Ú
page 340.
WARNING!
Stand clear of vehicles when pulling with tow
eyes.

Do not use a chain with a tow eye. Chains may
break, causing serious injury or death.

Do not use a tow strap with a tow eye. Tow
straps may break or become disengaged,
causing serious injury or death.

Failure to follow proper tow eye usage may
cause components to break resulting in
serious injury or death.

The brake and steering power assist systems
will not function while the vehicle is being
towed. You will, therefore, need to apply more
force on the brake pedal and steering wheel.
Do not use flexible ropes when towing, and
avoid jerky movements. Do not start the
engine while towing the car. Before tightening
the ring, clean the threaded housing thor-
oughly. Make sure that the ring is fully
screwed into the housing before towing the
car.
