Recreational Towing

Note: Put your climate control system in

recirculated air mode to prevent exhaust

fumes from entering the vehicle. See

Climate Control (page 105).

Follow these guidelines if you have a need

for recreational (RV) towing. An example

of recreational towing would be towing

your vehicle behind a motorhome. We

designed these guidelines to prevent

damage to your transmission.

You can tow your vehicle with all four

wheels on the ground or with the front

wheels off the ground by using a tow dolly.

If you are using a tow dolly follow the

instructions specified by the equipment

provider.

If you tow your vehicle with all four wheels

on the ground:

• Tow only in the forward direction.

• Release the parking brake.

• Place the transmission in position N.

• Place the ignition in the off position.

See Starting and Stopping the

Engine (page 124).

• Do not exceed 70 mph (113 km/h).

• Place the transmission in position P,

start the vehicle and allow it to run for

one minute at the beginning of each

day (you may need to press the

accelerator pedal in order to start the

vehicle). After allowing the vehicle to

run, place the transmission back into

position N and the ignition in the

accessory position.
