Nissan 2008 Altima Coupe Automobile User Manual


 
CAUTION
Never tow Continuously Variable Trans-
mission (CVT) models with the front
wheels on the ground or four wheels on
the ground (forward or backward), as
this may cause serious and expensive
damage to the transmission. If it is nec-
essary to tow the vehicle with the rear
wheels raised always use towing dollies
under the front wheels.
When towing Continuously Variable
Transmission (CVT) models with the
front wheels on towing dollies, or when
towing manual transmission models
with the front wheels on the ground:
Turn the ignition key to the OFF po-
sition, and secure the steering wheel
in a straight-ahead position with a
rope or similar device. Never secure
the steering wheel by turning the ig-
nition key to the LOCK position. This
may damage the steering lock
mechanism.
Move the gearshift lever to the N
(Neutral) position.
When towing Continuously Variable
Transmission (CVT) or manual trans-
mission models with the rear wheels on
the ground (if you do not use towing
dollies): Always release the parking
brake.
