Important
Never attempt to tow the vehicle behind another vehicle as this could damage the electric motor. The vehicle must instead be lifted onto a tow truck and transported with all four wheels on the bed or lifting platform of the truck (no wheels may touch the road).
Towing another vehicle
Towing another vehicle requires a lot of power - use the Constant AWD drive mode. This charges the hybrid battery and helps improve the vehicle's driving and roadholding characteristics.
Before towing another vehicle, check applicable speed limit regulations.
Jump starting
Never attempt to tow the vehicle to start the engine, as this could damage the electric motor. Use an auxiliary battery if the start battery's charge level is so low that the engine cannot be started.
Important
Attempts to tow-start the vehicle could cause damage to the electrical drive motor and three-way catalytic converter.
