  • Release the parking brake.

  • Start the engine.

  • Shift to D, then to N.

  • Turn off the engine.

  • Leave the ignition switch in ACCESSORY (I) so the steering wheel does not lock.

  • Make sure the all accessories are turned off to minimize battery current draw.

    • It is best to tow the vehicle no farther than 50 miles (80 km),   and keep the vehicle speed below 35 mph (55 km/h).

    • Improper towing preparation will damage the transmission. Follow the above procedure exactly. If you cannot shift the transmission or start the engine (A/T model), the vehicle must be transported on a flat-bed tow truck.

    • Trying to lift or tow the vehicle by the bumpers will cause serious damage. The bumpers are not designed to support the vehicle's weight.
