You can tow your vehicle with all four wheels on the ground using the Neutral Tow mode in the information display. Alternatively, if you have a front-wheel drive vehicle, you can tow with the front wheels off the ground by using a tow dolly.
If you tow your vehicle with all four wheels on the ground:
• Tow only in the forward direction.
• Release the parking brake.
• Place your vehicle in Neutral Tow mode with the following steps:
-- Switch your vehicle on in accessory mode.
-- Press the menu button on the controls on the steering wheel.
-- Select Settings.
-- Select Neutral Tow.
-- Follow the instructions on the information display.
-- Fully press the brake pedal.
-- Shift into neutral (N).
-- Switch the ignition off.
• Do not exceed 70 mph (113 km/h).
