STARTING AND DRIVING

Towing eye

Use the towing eye if the car shall tow another
vehicle. The towing eye is screwed into a threa-
ded socket behind a cover on the right-hand
side of the rear bumper.
Fitting the towing eye
Take out the towing eye from the foam block
under the floor hatch in the cargo area.

Remove the cover - press on the marking
with a finger and, at the same time, fold out
the opposite side/corner using a coin or sim-
ilar.
> The cover pivots around its centre line and
can then be removed.
3. Screw the towing eye right in until it stops.
Tighten the towing eye firmly e.g. using the
wheel wrench.
After use, unscrew the towing eye and return it to
its place.
Finish by refitting the cover onto the bumper.
IMPORTANT
It is important that the towing eye is firmly
screwed into place - right in until it stops.
NOTE
If the car is equipped with a towing bracket,
there is no mounting for a towing eye.
