An example of “recreational towing” is towing your vehicle behind a motorhome.
The transaxle is not designed for towing this vehicle on all 4 wheels. When doing recreational towing refer to “Towing Description” (page 7-25) and “Tiedown Hook” (page 7-26) and carefully follow the instructions

Towing Description
We recommend that towing be done only by an Authorized Mazda Dealer or a commercial tow-truck service.
Proper lifting and towing are necessary to prevent damage to the vehicle. Government and local laws must be followed.
A towed vehicle usually should have its drive wheels (front wheels) off the ground. If excessive damage or other conditions prevent this, use wheel dollies. - AvaExplorerAlways check owners manual, it will have a section on towing dos and don'ts.
