If your car needs to be towed, call a
professional towing service or, if you
belong to one, an organization that
provides roadside assistance. Never
tow your car behind another vehicle
with just a rope or chain. It is very
dangerous.

The tow

truck uses metal cables with hooks
on the ends. These hooks go around
parts of the frame or suspension and
the cables lift that end of the car off
the ground. Your car’s suspension
and body can be seriously damaged.

Improper towing preparation will
damage the transmission. Follow the
above procedure exactly. If you
cannot shift the transmission or start
the engine (automatic transmission),
your car must be transported with
the front wheels off the ground.

There are three popular types of
professional towing equipment.

The operator

loads your car on the back of a truck.

The tow

truck uses two pivoting arms that go
under the tyres (front or rear) and
lift them off the ground. The other
two tyres remain on the ground.

If your Honda cannot be transported
by flat-bed, it should be towed by
wheel-lift equipment with the front
wheels off the ground. If due to
damage, your car must be towed
with the front wheels on the ground,
do the following:

With the front wheels on the ground,
it is best to tow the car no farther
than 80 km (50 miles), and keep the
speed below 55 km/h (35 mph).

Release the parking brake.
Start the engine.
Shift to D, then to N.
Turn off the engine.

If your vehicle is equipped with a
front spoiler/lower skirt, remove it
before towing so it is not damaged.

Release the parking brake.
Shift the transmission to Neutral.

Automatic Transmission

5-speed Manual Transmission and
6-speed Manual Transmission

Sling-type Equipment

Flat-bed Equipment

Wheel-lif t Equipment

This method of towing is
unacceptable.

This is the best way to transport
your Honda.

This is an acceptable way to tow
your Honda.

Emergency Towing
