Removing the towing eyelet:
–After use, unscrew the towing eyelet and return it to its storage location. Replace the cover on the bumper.
In certain conditions, the towing eyelet may be used to pull the vehicle onto a flatbed tow truck.The vehicle's position and ground clearancedetermines if this is possible. If the incline of the tow truck is too steep or if the ground clearance under the vehicle is insufficient, attempting to pull it up using the towing eyeletmay result in damage. If necessary, lift the vehicle using the tow truck's lifting device instead of using the towing eyelet.

No person or object should be behind the tow truck when the vehicle is lifted onto the bedof the truck.
CAUTION
The towing eyelet is only intended for towing on roads, and must
not be used to pull vehi-
cles from ditches or any similar purpose involving severe strain. Call a tow truck forprofessional assistance.
