■When towing the vehicle
2WD models: Be sure to transport the

ground. If the vehicle is towed with the
tires contacting the ground, the drivetrain
and related parts may be damaged or an

place excessive stress on the towing hooks, cables or chains. The tow-
ing hooks, cables or chains may become damaged, broken debris may
hit people, and cause serious damage.
