Tighten the towing hitch 3 fully: first
by hand until it stops, then finish by
locking it with the wheel brace or, de-
pending on the vehicle, the lever.
Only use the towing hitch 3 and the
wheelbrace or lever provided with the
tools ➥ 5.8.
When the engine is stopped,
steering and braking assist-
ance are not operational.
– Use 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.
– Avoid accelerating or braking
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– In all cases, it is advisable not to
exceed 15.5 mph (25 km/h).
