What to do in an emergency
06
Towing in this manner may be done
only on a solid ground for a short dis-
tance and at a low speed. Also, the
wheels, axles, power train, steering
and brakes must all be in good con-
dition.
• Do not use the tow hooks to pull a
vehicle out of mud, sand or others,
from which the vehicle cannot drive
out with its own power.
• Avoid towing a vehicle heavier than
a towing vehicle.
• The two drivers of the both vehi-
cles should frequently communi-
cate each other.
• Attach a towing strap to the tow
hook.
• Using other parts of the vehicle
than the towing hooks while
towing may damage the vehicle.
• Use only the authorized cables
or chains for towing. Securely
fasten the cables or chains to
the towing hook.
• Before emergency towing, check
that the hook is not broken or dam-
aged.
• Securely fasten the towing cable or
chain to the hook.
• Do not jerk the hook. Maintain a
steady and even force.
• To avoid damaging the hook, do
not pull the hook at a diagonal or
vertical angle. Always pull it
straight out.
NOTICE
Use extreme caution when tow-
ing the vehicle.
• Avoid a sudden start or abrupt
driving maneuvers, which
may excessively stress the
emergency towing hooks,
cables or chains. The towing
hooks, cables or chains may
break and cause a serious
injury or damage.
• When you cannot move your
damaged or disabled vehicle,
do not forcibly try to tow the
vehicle. Contact an authorized
EQUUS dealer or a commer-
cial tow truck service for
assistance.
• Tow the vehicle in a straight
line.
• Keep a distance away from
the vehicle while towing.
