Transporting









If the vehicle is being transported on a trailer or flatbed transporter (Fig. 1)' the handbrake must be applied, the wheels chocked and if fitted with an automatic transmission, the gear selector lever moved to neutral, 'N' (See Gear-shift Interlock). Gear-Shift Interlock - Manual Override


CAUTION: Do not select 'P' because the parking lock mechanism may be damaged by the continuous slight forward and backward movement of the vehicle on the transporter.


There are four tie-down brackets on the vehicle underbody. Do not attach the tie down hooks of the transporter to the towing eyes of the vehicle.
