If the parking brake cannot be
released when towing the vehicle,
transport the vehicle with all front
and rear wheels raised off the ground
as shown in the figure. If the vehicle
is towed without raising the wheels
off the ground, the brake system
could be damaged.
1. Wheel dollies
If towing service is not available in an
emergency, the vehicle may be towed
with all four wheels on the ground
using the towing hook at the front of
the vehicle.
Only tow the vehicle on paved surfaces
for short distances at low speeds.
CAUTION
Follow these instructions when towing
the vehicle with all wheels on the
ground.
1. Shift to neutral (Manual
transmission), or the N position
(Automatic transmission).
2. Switch the ignition to ON.
3. Release the parking brake.
Refer to Electric Parking Brake (EPB)
on page 4-69.
Remember that power assist for the
brakes and steering will not be
available when the engine is not
running.

CAUTION
The towing eyelet should be used in
an emergency (to get the vehicle out
of a ditch or a snow bank, for
example).
When using the towing eyelets,
always pull the lead or chain in a
straight direction with respect to the
eyelet. Never apply a sideways force.
NOTE
When towing with chain or lead, wrap
the chain or lead with a soft cloth near
the bumper to prevent damage to the
bumper.
1. Remove the towing eyelet, wheel
brace, and the jack lever or
equivalent from the luggage
compartment (page 7-24).
2. Wrap a flathead screwdriver or jack
lever or a similar tool with a soft
cloth to prevent damage to a
painted bumper, and open the cap
located on the front or rear
bumper.
