WARNING:
Never get under the vehicle while it is supported only by the jack. Always use safety stands to
support the frame when you have to get under the vehicle.
Place wheel chocks at both front and back of the wheels on the ground.
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 during towing opera-
tion. 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 powertrain are in good order.
If any unit is damaged, dollies must be used.
Never tow an automatic transmission model from the rear
(i.e., backward) with four wheels on the ground as this may
cause serious and expensive damage to the transmission.
2WD MODELS
INFINITI does not recommend towing automatic transmission
equipped vehicles with the drive wheels on the ground.
CAUTION:
When towing with the front wheels on the ground: Turn the
ignition key to the OFF position and move the transmission
selector lever to N (neutral) position, turn the ignition key to
OFF position and secure the steering wheel in a straight
ahead position with a rope or similar device. Never place
the ignition key in the LOCK position. This will result in
damage to the steering lock mechanism.
