WARNING
Never allow the tow bar to remain unsecured in the boot. This could
■
cause damage to the boot upon sudden braking, and could put the safety
of the occupants at risk.
Never remove the tow bar while the trailer is still coupled.
■
CAUTION
If the handwheel is not turned all the way to the stop, then it will return to
■
its initial position when the tow bar is removed, and will rest on the tow bar
and not engage into the ready position. The tow bar will then need to be
brought into this position before the next time it is fitted.
The mounting recess must be closed with the cover following removal. This
■
prevents foreign bodies from getting into the mounting recess.
Note
We recommend putting the protective cover onto the ball head before re-
■
moving the tow bar.
Clean any dirt from the tow bar before stowing it away in the box with the
■
vehicle tool kit.
