-Emergency towing hook precautions (four-wheel drive models) Before towing, release the parking brake, put the transmission in neutral (manual) or "N" (automatic) and the transfer in "H2". The key must be in "ACC" (engine off) or "ON" (engine running). S Before emergency towing, check that the hook installation bolts are not loose. Fasten the towing rope or cable securely to the hook. Do not jerk the hook. To avoid damaging the hook, do not pull from the side or at a vertical angle. Always pull straight ahead. If you lose your keys Many Toyota dealers can make a new key if you can give them the key number. See the suggestion given in "Keys" in Chapter 1-2. If your keys are locked in the vehicle and you cannot get a duplicate, many Toyota dealers can still open the door for you, using their special tools. If you must break a window to get in, we suggest breaking the smallest side window because it is the least expensive to replace. Be extremely cautious to avoid cuts from the glass. S S S ! CAUTION If the engine is not running, the power assist for the brakes and steering will not work so steering and braking will be much harder than usual. 136
