6-10 Roadside emergency
Transporting
When the vehicle is being transported on
a trailer or vehicle flat bed transporter,
the handbrake must be applied, the
wheels chocked and:
• the automatic gear selector lever
moved to position ‘N’ or ‘D’ but
NEVER to ‘P’.
• the manual gear selector lever moved
to the neutral position.
The vehicle must be securely tied down
to the transporter or trailer. There are
four transporter tie-down brackets on the
vehicle underbody. Do not attach
tie-down hooks to the towing eye.
Suspended towing
Ensure that the recovery team do not tow
with sling-type equipment since damage
to the bodywork may result.
Caution: Do not tow the vehicle with
the front wheels lifted unless the
propshaft to the rear wheels is
disconnected at the final drive flange.
If the propshaft is not disconnected,
the rotating rear wheels will force the
front wheels to rotate, even with the
gear selector in neutral.
