Tow Truck Towing

CAUTION:
^ All applicable state or provincial (in Canada) laws and local laws regarding the towing operation must be obeyed.
^ Use proper towing equipment to avoid possible damage to the vehicle during a towing operation.
^ When towing with the rear wheels on the ground, release the parking brake and move the gearshift lever to "N" position.

Tow Truck Towing:

NISSAN recommends that vehicles be towed with the driving (rear) wheels off the ground as illustrated.

TOWING AN AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE MODEL WITH FOUR WHEELS ON GROUND
Observe the following restricted towing speeds and distances.
Speed: Below 50 kph (30 mph)
Distance: Less than 65 km (40 miles)

CAUTION
Never tow an automatic transaxle model from the rear (i.e., backward) with four wheels on the ground as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the transaxle

Towing An Automatic Transaxle Model With Rear Wheels Raised (With Front Wheels On Ground):

TOWING WITH REAR WHEELS RAISED (Front Wheels on ground)
Never tow an automatic transaxle model with rear wheels raised (front wheels on ground) as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the transaxle. If it is necessary to tow it with rear wheels raised, always use a towing dolly under the front wheels.

VEHICLE RECOVERY (Freeing a stuck vehicle)
^ Tow chains or cables must be attached only to the main structural members of the vehicle.
^ Pulling devices should be routed so that they do not touch any part of the suspension, steering, brake or cooling systems.
^ Always pull the cable straight out from the front or rear of the vehicle. Never pull on the vehicle at a sideways angle.
^ Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas straps are not recommended for use for vehicle towing or recovery.
