TOWING RECOMMENDED BY
NISSAN (except for NISMO models)
NISSAN recommends that your vehicle be
towed with the driving (rear) wheels off the
ground or place the vehicle on a flat bed truck as
illustrated.
CAUTION
. Never tow automatic transmission
models with the rear wheels on the
ground or four wheels on the
ground (forward or backward), as
this may cause serious and expen-
sive damage to the drivetrain. If it is
necessary to tow the vehicle with
the front wheels raised, always use
towing dollies under the rear
wheels.
. When towing rear wheel drive mod-
els with the front wheels on the
ground or on towing dollies: Push
the ignition switch to the ACC or ON
position, and secure the steering
wheel in a straight-ahead position
with a rope or similar device. Never
secure the steering wheel by select-
ing the LOCK position. This may
damage the steering lock mechan-
ism.
. If you have to tow manual transmis-
sion models with the rear wheels on
the ground (if you do not use towing
dollies) or four wheels on the
ground:
Push the ignition switch to the
ON position and turn off all
accessories.
Always release the parkin g
brake.
Move the transmission shift le-
ver to the N (Neutral) position.
