Technical r r equirements
The towing device is a safety element
and you should therefore only use a
device specifically designed for your vehi-
cle and which is duly approved.
If the trailer to be towed has a 7-pin
plug, an adapter cable can be used which
may be obtained in any Technical Service
Centre.
The installation of a towing bracket
should be carried out according to the
instructions of the towing bracket manu-
facturer.

equipped with the necessary information

for reinforcing the cooling system. For
these reasons, it is best to have them per-
