Rear:
Press out the cover panel with a screw-
driver inserted in the recess at the top.
Use only the towing eyelet sup-
plied with the vehicle and screw it
in firmly until it stops. Use the towing
eyelet for towing on paved roads only. If
you do not follow these instructions, the
towing eyelet could be torn out and
vehicle damage could occur. Never
attach tie-down hooks, chains, straps,
or tow hooks to tie rods, control arms,
or any other part of the vehicle suspen-
sion, as severe damage to these com-
ponents will occur, possibly leading to
accidents.
<
Avoid staggered towing and be
careful that the towing strap is
taut before starting to drive the vehicle
doing the towing.
<
Use only a nylon towing strap to tow
the vehicle, since the inherent resil-
ience of this material helps protect both
vehicles from sudden jerking move-
ments.
The towed vehicle should always
be the lighter of the two vehicles.
If this is not the case, it will not be pos-
sible to control vehicle handling.

Never attempt to use your vehicle to
push another vehicle, since damage to
the energy-absorbing bumpers could
result.
