positive jumper cable from the
remote positive (+) post of the

Towing a Disabled Vehicle
Proper towing or lifting equipment is
required to prevent damage to your
vehicle. Use only towing bars and
other equipment designed for the
purpose, following equipment
manufacturer’s instructions.
Safety chains are mandatory.
Securely attach a towing bar or other
towing device to main structural
members of the vehicle, not to
bumpers or associated brackets.
Make sure you comply with local
towing regulations.
• If the vehicle's battery is discharged,
refer to the following paragraph on
how to shift the automatic
transmission out of the P (Park)
position and release the parking
brake.
• If the vehicle battery is still charged,
turn off the engine and disengage
the parking brake manually (if
automatically engaged) by using the
command behind the gear lever (see
“Parking Brake” chapter in section
5). Shift then manually the
transmission out of P (Park) as
described in “Gearbox Manual
Release of P (Park) Position” chapter
of this section. If you need to use the
accessories (wipers, defrosters, etc.)
while being towed, the ignition
must be in
RUN position, do not use
the ACC position.
CAUTION!
Your vehicle is equipped with tow
eyes, which are mounted in the front
and the rear. Tow eyes are for
emergency use only, for example to
rescue a vehicle stranded off road. Do
not use tow eyes for tow truck
hookup as you could damage your
vehicle.
Manual Release of
Transmission and Parking
Brake
In order to push or tow the vehicle if
unable to shift the transmission out of
P (Park) (such as a discharged battery),
a manual park release is available. In
this case it is necessary to manually
release the shift lever and the parking
brake by applying the emergency
procedure (see “Parking Brake” in
section 5).
Follow the steps as indicated in
“Gearbox Manual Release of P (Park)
Position” in this section to manually
disengage the transmission.
