CAUTION:
•Please check with state and local authori-
ties before attempting this type of towing,
as vehicles being towed are subject to
regulations regarding maximum towing
speed, length and type of towing device,
lighting, etc.
•If the car’s battery is dead, do not attempt

•Remember that the power brakes and
power steering will not function when
engine is not running. The braking and
steering systems will function but the
brake pedal pressure required is 3 - 4
times above normal and greater steering
effort must be exerted.
•The towing eyelets must not be used for
pulling another vehicle out of a ditch or
for any similar purpose involving severe
strain.
•Do not use the towing eyelets to pull the
car up onto a flat bed tow truck.
