Kia Carens: Towing / General information
| Towing |
If the vehicle needs to be towed, call a professional towing service. Never
tow vehicle with just a rope or chain. It is very dangerous.
Emergency Towing
There are three popular methods of towing a vehicle :
| – |
The operator loads the vehicle on the back of truck. This is best way
of transporting the vehicle.
|
| – |
The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under the tires of the
driving axle and lift them off the ground. The other two wheels remain
on the ground.
|
| – |
The tow truck uses metal cables with hooks on the ends. These hooks
go around parts of the frame or suspension, and the cables lift that
end of the vehicle off the ground. The vehicle's suspension and body
can be seriously damaged if this method of towing is attempted.
|
If the vehicle cannot be transported by flat-bed, should be towed with the wheels
of the driving axle off the ground and do the following :
Manual Transaxle
| • |
Release the parking brake.
|
| • |
