Place the gearshift lever in the "N" (Neutral) posi-
tion (M/T) or the selector lever in the "N" (NEU-

Emergency towing
If towing service is not available in an emergency,
your vehicle may be temporarily towed by a rope
secured to the towing hook.
If your vehicle is to be towed by another vehicle or
if your vehicle tows another vehicle, pay careful at-
tention to the following points:
If your vehicle is to be towed by another vehicle
1. Take out the towing hook, wheel nut wrench
and jack bar. (Refer to "Tools, jack and tyre
repair kit" on page 6-06.)
2. Cover the tip of the jack bar with a cloth,
then use it to remove the cover (A) that is lo-
cated on the front bumper.
3. Use the wheel nut wrench (B) to securely
mount the towing hook (C).
4. Secure the tow rope to the front towing hook.
CAUTION
l
Do not tow the vehicle with the rope at an
excessive diagonal angle.
NOTE
l
To avoid deforming or otherwise damaging
the vehicle body when hooking the rope onto
the towing hook, observe the following in-
structions:
• Mount the towing hook securely.
• Do not attach the rope to any part of the
vehicle other than the towing hook.
• Ensure that the tow rope is taut when the
towing vehicle moves away.
5. Keep the engine running.
If the engine is not running, turn the ignition
switch to the "ACC" or "ON" position (M/T)

For emergencies
or "ON" position (A/T or CVT) to unlock
the steering wheel.
NOTE
l
For vehicles equipped with the Auto Stop &
Go (AS&G) system, press the "Auto Stop &
Go (AS&G) OFF" switch to deactivate the
Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system before stop-
ping the vehicle.
Refer to "To deactivate" on page 4-23.
CAUTION
l
On vehicles with Twin Clutch SST, have
the vehicle transported by a tow truck
with all wheels raised off the ground if
the engine does not start.
If the vehicle is towed without starting
the engine, the Twin Clutch SST may be
damaged because the fluid will not reach
all parts of the transmission.
Refer to "If your vehicle needs to be tow-
ed" on page 6-19.
l
When the engine is not running, the
brake booster and power steering system
do not operate. This means higher brake
depression force and higher steering ef-
fort are required. Therefore, vehicle oper-
ation is more difficult than usual.
l
Do not leave the key in the "LOCK" posi-
tion. The steering wheel will lock, causing
loss of control.
6. Place the gearshift lever in the "N" (Neutral)
position (M/T) or the selector lever (A/T or
CVT) or gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST)
in the "N" (NEUTRAL) position.
