- Turn the ignition key to the OFF position, and secure the steering wheel in a straight ahead position

with a rope or similar device.Never secure the steering wheel by turning the ignition key to the LOCK
position. This may damage the steering lock mechanism.

- Move the selector lever to the N (Neutral) position.
• When the battery of vehicle equipped with the Intelligent Key system is discharged, your vehicle

should be towed with the front wheels on towing dollies or place the vehicle on a flat bed truck.

If the speed or distance must necessarily be greater, remove the propeller shaft before towing to prevent dam-
age to the transmission.
