What to do in an emergency

F080301ABH

Emergency towing precautions

• Place the transmission shift lever in N

(Neutral).

• Release the parking brake.

• Press the brake pedal with more force

than normal since you will have

reduced brake performance.

• More steering effort will be required

because the power steering system

will be disabled.

• If you are driving down a long hill, the

brakes may overheat and brake per-

formance will be reduced. Stop often

and let the brakes cool off.

CAUTION - Automatic

transmission

• 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 transmission is in

neutral. Be sure the steering is

unlocked by placing the ignition

switch in the ACC position. A

driver must be in the towed vehi-

cle to operate the steering and

brakes.

• To avoid serious damage to the

automatic transmission, limit the

vehicle speed to 10 mph (15 km/h)

and drive less than 1 mile (1.5

km) when towing.

• Before towing, check the auto-

matic transmission for fluid leaks

under your vehicle. If the auto-

matic transmission fluid is leak-

ing, flatbed equipment or a tow-

ing dolly must be used.
