In an Emergency
Use the Tow Hook Included in
the Tool Kit
CAUTION!
The tow hook should only be used for
towing the car on flat roads. Do not
use the tow hook to remove the car
that is stuck on off-road stretches.
The tow hook is also used to tow the
vehicle on the platform of a tow truck.

if the battery of the vehicle still

works, set "Transport Mode" on
MIA in "Suspensions" submenu (see
"Functions of Settings Menu on
MIA" chapter in section "Dashboard
Instruments and Controls"). With this
mode activated, the ride height will be
lowered to the minimum value and
the pneumatic suspension system will

be disabled to help vehicle loading on
the tow truck.
It is necessary to inform the operators
of the rescue vehicle about the vehicle
minimum height to avoid, during its
loading, any contact of the lower ends
of the front or rear bumper with the
tow truck loading ramp.
The tow hook is contained in the tool
kit (see "Tool Kit" chapter in this
section) and must be screwed in the
seat located on the front and rear
bumper.
