Towing using a towline

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 helps charge the hybrid battery and 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.
