VEHICLE TOWING
WARNING: Do not allow towing attachment devices to contact the fuel tank or lines, fuel leak can result. Do not lift or tow vehicle by front or
rear bumper, or bumper energy absorber units. Do not venture under a lifted vehicle if not supported properly on safety stands.
Do not allow passengers to ride in a towed vehicle. Use a safety chain that is independent from the towing attachment device.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
CAUTION: Do not damage brake lines, exhaust system, shock absorbers, sway bars, or any other under vehicle components when attaching
towing device to vehicle. Do not attach towing device to front or rear suspension components. Do not secure vehicle to towing
device by the use of front or rear suspension or steering components. Remove or secure loose or protruding objects from a
damaged vehicle before towing. Refer to state and local rules and regulations before towing a vehicle. Do not allow weight of
towed vehicle to bear on lower fascia, air dams, or spoilers.
To avoid damage to bumper fascia and air dams use of a wheel lift or flat bed towing device is recommended. When using a wheel lift towing device,
be sure the un-lifted end of disabled vehicle has at least 100 mm (4 in.) ground clearance. If minimum ground clearance cannot be reached, use a towing
dolly. If a flat bed device is used, the approach angle should not exceed 15 degrees.
