4-WHEEL DRIVE MODELS
NISSAN recommends that a dolly be used as illustrated when towing 4-wheel drive models.
CAUTION:
-
When towing with the front wheels on the ground or rear wheels on the ground (If you do not use towing dollies): Set the free-running hubs to the
free position and move the transfer case shift lever into the "2H" position.
-
When towing with the front on the ground: Turn the ignition key to the OFF position and secure the steering wheel in a straight ahead position
with a rope or similar device. Never place the ignition key in the LOCK position. This will result in damage to the steering lock mechanism.
-
When towing manual transmission models with the rear wheels on the ground:
Always release the parking brake and move the transmission shift lever to the neutral position.
Observe the following restricted towing speeds and distances.
Speed: Below 95 km/h (60 MPH)
Distance: Less than 800 km (500 miles)
If the speed or distance must necessarily be greater, remove the propeller shaft before hand to prevent damage to the transmission.
