Tow Truck TowingINFOID:0000000001325684
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 towi ng equipment to avoid possible damage to the vehicle during tow-
ing operation. To wing 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 powertrain 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 exp ensive damage to the transmission.
2WD MODELS
INFINITI recommends that vehicle be towed with the dr iving (rear) wheels off the ground or that a dolly be
used as illustrated.
CAUTION:
 Never tow automatic transmission models with the r ear wheels on the ground or four wheels on the
ground (forward or backward), as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the transmis-
sion.
If it is necessary to tow the vehicle with the fron t wheels raised, always use towing dollies under the
rear wheels.
 When towing rear wheel drive mo dels with the front wheels on the ground or on towing dollies:
- Turn the ignition key to the OFF position, and secure the steering wh eel in a straight ahead position
with a rope or similar device.Never secure the st eering 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 wh eels on towing dollies or place the vehicle on a flat bed truck.
If the speed or distance must necessarily be greater, re move the propeller shaft before towing to prevent dam-
age to the transmission.
