TOW TRUCK TOWING

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 to the vehicle during towing operation. Towing is in accordance with Towing Procedure Manual at dealer.
^ When towing with the rear wheels on the ground, release the parking brake and move the shift lever to "N" position.
^ Never tow the vehicle from the rear (i.e., backward) with four wheels on the ground as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the transmission.
^ INFINITI recommends that vehicle be towed with the driving (rear) wheels off the ground as illustrated.







TOWING AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION MODEL WITH 4 WHEELS ON THE GROUND

Observe the following restricted towing speeds and distances:

Speed: Below 50 km/h (30 MPH)

Distance: Less than 65 km (40 miles)

If the speed or distance must necessarily be greater, remove the propeller shaft beforehand to prevent damage to the transmission.


TOWING WITH FRONT WHEELS RAISED (With rear wheels on ground)

^ Never tow an automatic transmission model with front wheels raised (with rear wheels on ground) as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the transmission. If it is necessary to tow it with front wheels raised, always use a towing dolly under the rear wheels.

TOWING POINT

^ Always pull the cable straight out from the vehicle. Never pull on the hook at a sideways angle.
^ Use the towing hooks only to free a vehicle stuck in sand, snow, mud, etc. Never tow the vehicle using only the towing hooks.
