converter is at operating temperature. Otherwise unburnt<br />

fuel may pass into catalytic converter and cause damage.<br />

When towing a vehicle with automatic transmission<br />

following additional points must be observed:<br />

Selector lever must be in "N" position.<br />

Do not tow vehicle faster than 30 mph (50 km/h).<br />

Do not tow further than 30 miles (50 km).<br />

If towing over greater distances, vehicle must be<br />

suspended at front.<br />

Reason: When engine is not running transmission oil pump<br />

is not working and transmission is not adequately<br />

lubricated for high speeds or long distances.<br />

Using a breakdown vehicle, vehicle may only be towed<br />

suspended at front.<br />

Reason: If given a rear suspended tow, drive shafts turn<br />

backward. This would cause planetary gears in automatic<br />

transmission to achieve such a high rpm that transmission<br />

would be heavily damaged within a very short time.<br />

For vehicles with all wheel drive:<br />

Using a breakdown vehicle vehicle may be towed<br />

suspended at front or rear.<br />

Note:<br />

Do not tow at speeds greater than 30 mph (50 km/h).<br />

Maximum towing distance is 30 miles (50 km).<br />

Note:<br />

If normal towing of vehicle is not possible, vehicle must be<br />

transported on a special transporter or trailer. This is also<br />

valid for distances greater than 30 miles (50 km).<br />
