o If the car is being towed with all
four wheels on the ground, it can
be towed only from the front. Be
sure that the transaxle is in neu-
tral. Do not tow at speeds greater

Do not attempt to tow your vehicle in
this manner on any unpaved surface.
This could result in serious damage to
your car.
Nor should towing be attempted if the
wheels, drive train, axles, steering or
brakes are damaged. Before towing, be
sure the transaxle is in neutral and the
key is in "ACC" (with the engine off) or
in the "ON" position (with the engine
running). A driver must be in the towed
car to steer it and operate the brakes.
