178 WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE We recommend that the vehicle be transported using flat bed equipment. This method is preferable to other types of towing. CAUTION! If the vehicle is towed with the front wheels raised, the engine must be shut off (key in the ignition switch turned to the OFF/LOCK or ACC positions). Otherwise, the ESP will immediately be engaged and will apply the rear wheel brakes. Switch off the tow-away alarm as well as the automatic central locking system. Towing restrictions for vehicles with automatic transmission: The vehicle may be towed with all wheels on the ground and the transmission selector lever in the Neutral position for distances up to 30 miles (48 km) and at a speed not to exceed 30 mph (48 km/h). The key must be turned to the ON/RUN position in the ignition. To be certain to avoid a possibility of damage to the transmission, however, we recommend the drive shaft be disconnected at the rear axle drive flange for any towing beyond a short tow to a nearby garage. Always comply with applicable state or local towing ordinances. CAUTION! Important! If towing the vehicle, please note the following: With the automatic central locking activated and the key in the ignition switch turned to the ON/RUN position, the vehicle doors lock if the left front wheel and the right rear wheel are turning at vehicle speeds of approximately 9 mph (15 km/h) or more. To prevent the vehicle door locks from locking, deactivate the automatic central locking.
