The maximum towing speed is 50 km/h.

The vehicle must be transported on a special breakdown vehicle or trailer

if it is not possible to tow in the vehicle in the way described or if the tow-
ing distance is greater than 50 km.
Driver of the towed vehicle
›
If possible, the vehicle should be towed with the engine running. The brake
booster and power steering only operate if the engine is running, otherwise
much greater force has to be applied to the brake pedal and more power has
to be expended for steering.
›
If it is not possible to start the engine, switch on the ignition so that the
steering wheel does not lock and so that the turn signal lights, windscreen
wipers and windscreen washer system can be used.
›
Take the vehicle out of gear or move the selector lever into position N if the
vehicle is fitted with an automated transmission.
›
Keep the tow rope taut at all times during the towing procedure.

■
eye may unscrew out of the vehicle - risk of accident.
Ensure tow rope is not twisted - risk of accident.
■
CAUTION
Do not tow-start the engine – risk of damaging the engine! The battery from
■
another vehicle can be used as a jump-start aid
For off-road towing manoeuvres, there is a risk to both vehicles that the fas-
■
teners may become overloaded and damaged.
Note
We recommend that you use a tow rope from ŠKODA Original Accessories.
