Nissan Murano: Towing recommended by NISSAN / Two-Wheel Drive models with Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)
NISSAN recommends that your vehicle be
towed with the driving (front) wheels off the
ground or place the vehicle on a flatbed
truck as illustrated.
CAUTION
- 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 Continuously Variable
Transmission (CVT) models with the
rear wheels on the ground or on towing
dollies:
- Place the ignition switch in the OFF
position, and secure the steering
wheel in a straight-ahead position
with a rope or similar device. Never
secure the steering wheel by placing
the ignition switch in the LOCK
position. This may damage the
steering lock mechanism (for
models with a steering lock
mechanism).
NISSAN recommends that towing dollies
be used when towing your vehicle or place
the vehicle on a flatbed truck as illustrated.
CAUTION
Never tow All-Wheel Drive (AWD) models
equipped with a Continuously Variable
Transmission (CVT) with any of the
wheels on the ground as thismaycause
serious and expensive damage to the
transfer case and transmission...
