Transporting the Vehicle

Follow these procedures when transporting the vehicle.

NOTICE
Do not tow your GEM vehicle behind a car or other vehicle except on a trailer. Vehicle failures resulting from dolly towing will void warranty.

  1. Properly load the vehicle onto the trailer or towing vehicle.

  2. Apply the park brake.

  3. Turn the key off and remove to prevent loss during transporting.

  4. Ensure that all seats are attached correctly and are not loose.

  5. Secure the vehicle and rear accessory back doors (if equipped).

    WARNING

    Cargo and other loose vehicle parts may fall off while transporting the vehicle. Secure or remove all cargo, and inspect the unit for loose parts prior to transport.

    WARNING

    Do not exceed the towing vehicle's or trailer’s capacity when transporting. Refer to the towing vehicle and trailer’s specifications.

    WARNING

    If transporting the vehicle in a non-enclosed trailer, the vehicle must FACE FORWARD. Failure to comply may allow airflow, vibration, or other factors to separate the roof from the vehicle and cause an accident, resulting in serious personal injury or death.

    WARNING

    If transporting the vehicle in a non-enclosed trailer and the vehicle is equipped with hard doors, put all windows down.

  6. Using tie-down straps of suitable Working Load Limit (WLL), secure the vehicle to the trailer at the designated tie-down points (front and rear). The straps must be secured in a manner that provides support in both vertical and lateral directions. Ensure that they are set with enough tension as to compress the suspension and prevent vehicle movement during transport. Do not allow the secured straps to make contact with any other part of the trailer or cargo.

    CAUTION
    Always use the provided tie-down points. Not using the provided vehicle tie-down points could lead to premature component failure and/or excess wear on the tie-down straps.
    WARNING
    Always secure the vehicle with at least four straps when trailering. Use two straps in the front, and two in the rear.
    WARNING
    Never use chains to tie down the vehicle.
    WARNING
    Never place tie straps across any plastic body or floor panel components.
    WARNING
    Do not lay straps over any sharp edges. Sharp edges may damage straps during transportation.

  7. Periodically inspect the vehicle and trailer during transit. Adjust cargo and straps as needed to ensure that the cargo cannot shift, or fall from the trailer or towing vehicle.
