Flat towing

Towing your vehicle with all four wheels on the ground is sometimes called flat towing.
This method is sometimes used when towing a vehicle behind a recreational vehicle, such as a motor home.
CAUTION
• Failure to follow these guidelines can result in severe transmission damage.
• Whenever flat towing your vehicle, always tow forward, never backward.
• DO NOT tow any automatic transmission vehicle with all four wheels on the ground (flat towing). Doing so WILL DAMAGE internal transmission parts due to lack of transmission lubrication.
• DO NOT tow an All-Wheel Drive (AWD) vehicle with any of the wheels on the ground. Doing so may cause serious and expensive damage to the powertrain.
• For emergency towing procedures refer to “Towing recommended by INFINITI” of this manual.
