points (never use the driveshafts or any
other part of the vehicle).
These towing points may only be used
for towing: never use them for lifting the
vehicle directly or indirectly.
When the engine
stopped, steering and brak-
ing assistance are not op-
erational.

Access to towing points
Unclip the cover A or B by inserting a
tool 4 or similar under the lower part of
the cover (refer to the information on
"Tools" in Section 5).
Tighten the towing hitch 6 fully: first
by hand until it stops then finish by lock-
ing it with the wheel brace.
is
Use the towing hitch 6 only (refer to the
information on "Tools" in Section 5).
– Use a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed
must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, it is ad-
visable not to exceed 30 mph
(50 km/h).
– Do not push the vehicle if the
steering column is locked.
Do not leave the tools unse-
cured inside the vehicle as
they may come loose under
braking.
