2. Keep the engine running.
If the engine is not running, perform the
following operation to unlock the steering
wheel.
[Except for vehicles with the keyless
operation system]
Turn the ignition switch to the “ACC” or
“ON” position.
[For vehicles with the keyless operation
system]
Put the operation mode in ON.
3. Place the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neu-
tral) position (M/T) or the selector lever in
the “N” (NEUTRAL) position (A/T).
4. On 4WD vehicles, shift the transfer shift
lever or set the drive mode-selector to
“2H” position.
5. Turn on the hazard warning lamps if
required by law. (Follow the local driving
laws and regulations.)
6. During towing make sure that close con-
tact is maintained between the drivers of
both vehicles, and that the vehicles travel
at low speed.
Only use the rear towing hook (A) as shown
in the illustration. Secure the tow rope to the
rear towing hook.
Otherwise, the instructions are the same as
for “When being towed by another vehicle”.
WARNING
 When the engine is not running, the brake
booster and power steering pump do not
operate. This means higher brake depres-
sion force and higher steering effort are
required. Therefore, vehicle operation is
very difficult.
CAUTION
 Do not leave the ignition switch in the
“LOCK” position or the operation mode in
OFF. The steering wheel will lock, causing
loss of control.
WARNING
 Avoid sudden braking, acceleration and
steering wheel movements; such driving
operation could cause damage to the tow-
ing hook or towing rope.
People in the vicinity could be injured as a
result.

When going down a long slope, the brakes
may overheat, reducing effectiveness.
Have your vehicle transport by a tow
truck.
CAUTION
 The person in the vehicle being towed must
pay attention to the brake lamps of the tow-
ing vehicle and make sure the rope never
becomes slack.
 When the vehicle with an A/T is to be towed
by another vehicle with the all wheels on the
ground, make sure that the towing speed and
distance given below are never exceeded,
avoiding damage to the transmission.
