3
Release the parking brake.

Towing gear position

Failure to shift to N (Neutral) may cause internal damage to the vehicle.

CAUTION

Towing

  • Do not tow the vehicle backwards with the front wheels on the ground, as this may cause damage to the transmission.

  • Do not tow with sling-type equipment. Use wheel lift or flatbed equipment.

  • Do not tow the vehicle with four wheels in contact with the ground if it is the vehicle equipped with DCT or AT. Otherwise, the transmission will be seriously damaged. Also, make sure not to tow the vehicle connecting it with other vehicles including camper vans.

WARNING
  • If you tow the vehicle while the front wheels are touching the ground, the vehicle motor may generate electricity and the motor components may be damaged or a fire may occur.

  • When a fire occurs due to the battery, there is a risk of a secondary fire. Should at anytime a fire occur, immediately contact fire department.
