Rear towing hook:
1. Take the towing hook and screwdriver out of the tool bucket. Take the jack handle out of
the cargo area.
2. Pry off the cover on the rear bumper using a screwdriver, and you will find a threaded hole
for attaching the towing hook.
3. Screw the towing hook into the threaded hole until its thread can no longer be seen.
4. Tighten the towing hook securely using the jack handle.
After towing, remove the towing hook from the vehicle and stow it in the tool bucket.
Fit the towing hook cover on the bumper.
WARNING:
• Do not use the towing hook except when towing the vehicle.
• Be sure to remove the towing hook after towing. Leaving the towing hook mounted on the vehicle could
interfere with proper operation of the SRS airbag system in a collision and a collision detected (refer to page 23
for more details).
