Vehicles with an 2.8 L V 6 engine
can be dinghy towed only for
service and are restricted to a
maximum distance of 100 km
(60 miles) and not to exceed
80 km/h (50 mph).
Vehicles with the 3.0 L V 6 engine
can be dinghy towed without
distance restrictions.
Notice: If 105 km/h (65 mph)
is exceeded while towing the
vehicle, it could be damaged.
Never exceed 105 km/h (65 mph)
while towing the vehicle.
For vehicles being dinghy towed,
the vehicle should be run at the
beginning of each day and at each
RV fuel stop for about five minutes.
This will ensure proper lubrication
of transmission components.

engine (the green LED on the
switch will illuminate).
4. Put the vehicle in N (Neutral).
5. Press the START/STOP switch
again. The engine will stop, the
DIC will display Shift to Park and
the amber LED on the switch
illuminates. See Transmission
