Two-Wheel Drive (2WD) models
NISSAN recommends that your vehicle be towed with the driving (front) wheels off the ground or place the vehicle on a flat bed truck as illustrated.
- Never tow Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) models with the front wheels on the ground or four wheels on the ground (forward or backward), as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the transmission. If it is necessary to tow the vehicle with the rear wheels raised, always use towing dollies under the front wheels.
- When towing CVT models with the
front wheels on towing dollies:
— Turn the ignition switch to the
OFF position, and secure the
steering wheel in a straightahead
position with a rope or
similar device.
— Move the selector lever to the N (Neutral) position.
- When towing a CVT model with the rear wheels on the ground (if you do not use towing dollies): Always release the parking brake.
