Tow Truck Towing


CAUTION:
- All applicable state or provincial (in Canada) 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.
- Always attach safety chains before towing.
- When towing, make sure that the transmission, steering system and power train are in good order. If any unit is damaged, dollies must be used.
- Never tow CVT models with the front or all four wheels on the ground (forward or backward) as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the transaxle.
- If it is necessary to tow the vehicle with the rear wheels raised, always use towing dollies under the front wheels.
- when towing CVT models with the front wheels on the towing dollies:
- Turn the ignition key to the OFF position, and secure the steering wheel in a straight ahead position with a rope or similar device. Never secure the steering wheel by turning the ignition key to the
LOCK position. This may damage the steering lock mechanism.
- Move the selector lever to the N (Neutral) position.
- When the battery of the vehicle equipped with intelligent key system is discharged, your vehicle should be towed with the front wheels on towing dollies or place the vehicle on a flat bed truck.
- When towing CVT models with the rear wheels on the ground (if you don't use towing dollies):
Always release the parking brake.
NISSAN recommends that the vehicle be towed with the driving (front) wheels off the ground or that a dolly be used as illustrated.
