IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
TOWING THE VEHICLE
•
For towing a vehicle, the best
way is to use a wrecker.
•
Alternatively use a rigid tow bar.
•
Avoid using a flexible cable or
rope as your vehicle may crash
into the vehicle towing your car
when it stops suddenly.
•
Switch ‘ON’ the hazard warning
signals of both the vehicle to
warn other road users.
•
Where possible, keep the
engine idling so that brake
vacuum is available.
•
Limit the speed to 20-30 kmph.
•
In case of brake failure, use the
parking brake to control the
vehicle.
Towing instructions (AMT) :
A) Where vehicle can be shifted
in neutral condition :
•
Shift the gear lever into neutral.
•
Turn the ignition key to the “ACC”
position to unlock the steering
wheel.
•
Release the parking brake.
NOTE
After shifting the AMT gearshift
lever to the “N” position, always
check the gear position indicator
in the instrument cluster shows
the “N” position to make sure that
the transaxle is disengaged.
If the transaxle cannot be put in
neutral, turn the key from the “OFF”
to the “ON” position, and move the
AMT gearshift lever from “N” to “A”,
“M” or “R”, then back to “N” again.
Then turn the key from the “ON” to
the “OFF” position. These
procedures may help to put the
transaxle in neutral.
If the transaxle still cannot be put in
neutral, you cannot tow the vehicle
without lifting vehicle from rear side.
B) Where vehicle can not be
shifted in neutral condition:
•
Secure the rear wheels on a
towing lift and the front wheels
on the towing trolley.
•
Apply the parking brake.
WARNING
A safety chain/belt for tightening
the wheels with lift should always
be used when you tow your
vehicle.
NOTE
Always unlock the steering wheel
before towing.
