If you use chains or cables to tie down your vehicle, the angles shaded in black must be 45.
Do not overly tighten the tie downs or the vehicle may be damaged.
| WARNING Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury. When towing the vehicle
2WD models: Be sure to transport the vehicle with the front wheels raised or with all four wheels raised off the ground. If the vehicle is towed with the front wheels contacting the ground, the drivetrain and related parts may be damaged.
AWD models: Be sure to transport the vehicle with all four wheels raised off the ground. If the vehicle is towed with the tires contacting the ground, the drivetrain or related parts may be damaged, the vehicle may fly off the truck. While towing Do not turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position (vehicles without a smart key system) or off (vehicles with a smart key system). There is a possibility that the steering wheel is locked and cannot be operated. |
| NOTICE To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing using a wheel-lift type truck When raising the vehicle, ensure adequate ground clearance for towing at the opposite end of the raised vehicle. Without adequate clearance, the vehicle could be damaged while being towed. To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing with a sling-type truck Do not tow with a sling-type truck, either from the front or rear. Recreational towing (behind motor home, etc.) Never dinghy tow your vehicle to prevent causing serious damage to the Active Torque Control 4WD system (AWD models) and transaxle.
