Your vehicle may be towed by a tow truck
with the rear wheels lifted and the front
wheels on the ground. Towing speed
should not exceed 90 km/h (55 mph).
For this type of towing:
1) Shift the manual transmission to Neu-
tral or the automatic transmission to “P”
position and start the engine.
2) Shift the transfer lever to 2WD position
(“2H”).
3) Make sure the 4WD indicator on the
instrument cluster is turned off.
4) Turn the ignition key to the “ACC” posi-
tion to stop the engine and to unlock
the steering wheel.
5)
Make sure the front wheels are facing
straight forward and secure the steering
wheel with a steering wheel clamping
device designed for towing service.
NOTICE
If the air-locking hubs cannot be
unlocked, tow the vehicle with the
rear wheels lifted and a dolly under
the front wheels.
NOTICE
The steering column lock is not
strong enough to withstand shocks
transmitted from the front wheels
during towing.
