Precautions when moving a short distance using towing hook and so on before towing vehicle
Move short distances within 100 m (328 ft) at a speed of 5 km/h (3 mph) or less only when loading on a tow truck or if the vehicle needs to be repositioned.
At this time, the gear must be in the N (Neutral) position and the parking brake must be released. If it is impossible to operate the gear and parking brake, move the vehicle by using dollies, tyre skate, etc. with front wheels, i.e. driving wheel, lifted.
