SPECIFICATIONS
Weight: 70 kg
Espace vehicles fitted with the DP0 automatic
transmission are equipped with systems called:
"Shift Lock" and "Lock Up".
The purpose of the "Shift Lock" is to prevent mo-
vement of the selector lever without simultaneous
pressing of the brake pedal. For troubleshooting
operations when the battery is faulty, refer to the
vehicle handbook.
The purpose of the "Lock Up" or converter cou-
pling is to connect the automatic transmission di-
rectly to the engine. This function is carried out by
a "mini clutch" placed in the converter. The "Lock
Up" is controlled by the DP0 computer.

TOWING
It is preferable, in all cases, to have the vehicle to-
wed on a flat-bed trailer or with the front wheels
lifted. However, if this is not possible, towing may
be carried out in exceptional circumstances at a
speed below 30 mph (50 km/h) and over a di-
stance limited to 30 miles (50 km) maximum (lever
in N).
TOWED LOAD
It is compulsory that the towed load is less than
1,300 kg with a trailer with brakes (for driver on-
ly).
