ing the dolly manufacturer’s instructions.
• Drive the front wheels onto the tow dolly.
• Apply the Electric Park Brake (EPB). Place the trans-

ing the dolly manufacturer’s instructions.

the engine.
• Press and hold the brake pedal. •
Release the Electric Park Brake (EPB).
• Cycle the ignition OFF, remove the key fob, and
release the brake pedal.
CAUTION!
• DO NOT flat tow this vehicle. Damage to the
drivetrain will result. If this vehicle requires
towing, make sure the drive wheels are OFF the
ground.
• Ensure that the Electric Park Brake is released,
and remains released, while being towed.
• Towing this vehicle in violation of the above
requirements can cause severe transmission dam-

STARTING AND OPERATING 285

If you must use the accessories (wipers, defrosters, etc.)
while being towed, the ignition must be in the RUN
position.
NOTE:The Safehold feature will engage the Electric
Park Brake whenever the driver’s door is opened (if the
ignition is RUN, transmission is not in PARK, and brake
pedal is released). If you are towing this vehicle with
the ignition in the RUN position, you must manually
disable the Electric Park Brake each time the driver’s
door is opened, by pressing the brake pedal and then
releasing the EPB.
If the key fob is unavailable, or the vehicle’s battery is
discharged, refer to “Gear Selector Override” in this
section for instructions on shifting the transmission out
of PARK so that the vehicle can be moved.
CAUTION!
• Do not use sling type equipment when towing.
Vehicle damage may occur.
• When securing the vehicle to a flat bed truck, do
not attach to front or rear suspension components.
Damage to your vehicle may result from improper
towing.

with all four wheels OFF the ground using a flatbed.

wheels raised).
NOTE: Ensure that the Electric Park Brake is released,
and remains released, while being towed.
CAUTION!
Towing this vehicle in violation of the above re-
quirements can cause severe transmission damage.
Damage from improper towing is not covered un-
der the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
