TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE
CAUTION: Towing the vehicle with the
wheels on the ground, or on a
suspended lift, may cause serious damage
to the vehicle as well as generating high
voltages in the vehicle’s electrical
components.
The only approved method of towing or
transporting your Revero is using a flatbed
trailer or transporter.
Note:
Damage caused by any other towing
method will not be covered by the vehicle
warranty.
ATTACHING THE VEHICLE
RECOVERY EYE
CAUTION: Under no circumstances
should the vehicle be towed using the
vehicle recovery eye. Doing so can cause
significant damage to your Revero.
A vehicle recovery eye can be attached to
the front of the vehicle to allow the vehicle
to be pulled onto a transporter in situations
when the vehicle can roll freely.
The recovery eye is located in the under-
floor storage area of the trunk.
1.
Place the vehicle into System Ready
mode.
Note:
Severe powertrain damage may
result if you do not place the vehicle into
System Ready mode to release park
lock mechanism in the rear drive unit.
2.
Press on the 4 o' clock position of the
cover and it will pop out.
3.
Locate the recovery eye through the
bumper and screw into the mount for 10
complete turns. Refer to the illustration
above showing how the recovery eye
should seat into the front of the vehicle.
Note:
If the recovery eye cannot be
rotated for 10 complete turns, remove
the recovery eye and clean any debris
from the threads before reinstalling.
CAUTION: Failure to install the
recovery eye correctly could result in
the eye pulling out of the front of the
vehicle, causing significant damage.
