When towing your vehicle, all jurisdic-
tional and local regulations for towing
must be followed. Incorrect towing equip-
ment could damage your vehicle. Towing
instructions are available from a NISSAN
dealer. Local service operators are gen-
erally familiar with the applicable laws
and procedures for towing. To assure
proper towing and to prevent accidental
damage to your vehicle, NISSAN recom-
mends that you have a service operator
tow your vehicle. It is advisable to have
the service operator carefully read the
following precautions.
WARNING
.Never ride in a vehicle that is
being towed.
. Never get under your vehicle after
it has been lifted by a tow truck.
CAUTION
.When towing, make sure that the
transmission, axles, steering sys-
tem and powertrain are in work-
ing condition. If any of these
conditions apply, dollies or a
flatbed tow truck must be used. .
Always attach safety chains be-
fore towing.

vehicle” (P.10-26) or “Flat towing for
Front-Wheel Drive vehicle” (P.10-26).)

TOWING RECOMMENDED BY
NISSAN
All-Wheel Drive (AWD) models
NISSAN recommends that towing dollies
be used when towing your vehicle or the
vehicle be placed on a flat bed truck as
illustrated.
CAUTION
Never tow All-Wheel Drive (AWD)
models equipped with a Continu-
ously Variable Transmission (CVT)
with any of the wheels on the ground
as this may cause serious and ex-pensive damage to the transfer case
and transmission.

SCE0950
Two-Wheel Drive (2WD) models
NISSAN recommends that your vehicle be
towed with the driving (front) wheels off
the ground or place the vehicle on a flat
bed truck as illustrated.
NOTE:
If the electronic parking brake is re-
leased, the rear wheels can be
grounded while towing. If the electronic
parking brake is not released, towing
dollies should be used. For additional
information, refer to “Parking brake”
(P.5-25).CAUTION
Never tow CVT models with the front
wheels on the ground or four wheels
on the ground (forward or back-
ward), as this may cause serious
and expensive damage to the trans-
mission. If it is necessary to tow the
vehicle with the rear wheels raised,
always use towing dollies under the
front wheels.
