Tow Truck TowingAAS000EH
CAUTION:

All applicable state or Provincial (in Canada) laws and local laws regarding the towing operation
must be obeyed.

It is necessary to use proper towing equipment to avoid possible damage to the vehicle during
towing operation. Towing is in accordance with Towing Procedure Manual at dealer.

Always attach safety chains before towing.

When towing, make sure that the transmission, steering system and power train are in good order.
If any unit is damaged, dollies must be used.

Never tow an automatic transmission model from the rear (that is backward) with four wheels on
the ground. This may cause serious and expensive damage to the transmission.
2WD MODELS
INFINITI recommends that your vehicle be towed with the driving (rear) wheels off the ground or that a dolly be
used as illustrated.
CAUTION:

Never tow automatic transmission models with the rear wheels on the ground or four wheels on
the ground (forward or backward) as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the trans-
mission.
If it is necessary to tow the vehicle with the front wheels raised, always use towing dollies under
the rear wheels.

When towing rear wheel drive models with the front wheels on the ground or on towing dollies:
–Turn the ignition key to the OFF position, and secure the steering wheel in a straight ahead posi-
tion with a rope or similar device.Never secure the steering wheel by turning the ignition key to the
LOCK position. This may damage the steering lock mechanism.
–Move the selector lever to the N (Neutral) position.

When the battery of vehicle equipped with the Intelligent Key system is discharged, your vehicle
should be towed with the front wheels on towing dollies or place the vehicle on a flat bed truck.

INFINITI recommends that a dolly be used as illustrated when towing AWD models.
CAUTION:
Never tow AWD models with any of the wheels on the ground as this may cause serious and expen-
sive damage to the power train.
Vehicle Recovery (Freeing a Stuck Vehicle) AAS000EI
Securely install the recovery hook stored with jacking tools.
Make sure that the hook is properly secured in the stored place after
use.
WARNING:

Stand clear of a stuck vehicle.

Do not spin your tires at high speed. This could be cause
them to explode and result in serious injury. Parts of your
vehicle could also overheat and be damaged.
CAUTION:

Use the recovery hook only, not other parts of the vehicle.
Otherwise, the vehicle body will be damaged.

Use the recovery hook only to free a vehicle stuck in sand,
snow, mud, etc. Never tow the vehicle for a long distance
using only the recovery hook.

The recovery hook is under tremendous force when used to
free a stuck vehicle. Always pull the cable straight out from
the front of the vehicle. Never pull on the hook at an angle.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
To tow a vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission, an appropriate vehicle dolly MUST be placed
under the towed vehicle's drive wheels. Always follow the dolly manufacture's recommendations when using
their product.

CAN Communication System DescriptionAIS004PY
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
