Recreational Towing
Note:
Put your climate control system in
recirculated air mode to prevent exhaust
fumes from entering the vehicle. See
Climate Control
(page 121).
Follow these guidelines if you have a need
for recreational (RV) towing. An example
of recreational towing would be towing
your vehicle behind a motorhome. We
designed these guidelines to prevent
damage to your transmission.
You can tow your vehicle with all four
wheels on the ground or with the front
wheels off the ground by using a tow dolly.
If you are using a tow dolly follow the
instructions specified by the equipment
provider.
If you tow your vehicle with all four wheels
on the ground:
•
Tow only in the forward direction.
•
Release the parking brake.

Start the vehicle by pressing the brake
pedal, and then pressing the ENGINE
START/STOP button until the vehicle

3. Turn the vehicle off by pressing the

You can remove the key fob from the
vehicle while towing.
