TOWING: breakdown
– RENAULT recommends
the use of 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.
– Do not accelerate or brake sud-
denly when towing, as this may
result in damage being caused to
the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, do not
exceed 15 mph (25 km/h).

Towing a vehicle with an
automatic gearbox:
special notes
With the engine switched off: the
gearbox is no longer lubricated. It is
preferable to tow this type of vehicle on
a trailer or tow it with the front wheels
off the ground.
Under exceptional circumstances,
you may tow the vehicle with all four
wheels on the ground, only going for-
ward, with the gear shift in the Neutral
position, and for a distance not exceed-
ing 30 miles (50 km).
When the engine is stopped,
steering and braking assist-
ance are not operational.
A
The gear lever must be in position N
(neutral).
If the lever becomes jammed in posi-
tion P, even though you are pressing
down the brake pedal, the lever can be
released manually.
To do this, unclip cover B and simulta-
neously press lug (located underneath
cover B) and unlocking button A to
move the lever out of position P.
