2. Pull the handwheel out and turn it
counterclockwise to the stop. The tow
ball arm automatically swivels into a
midway position.
3. Release the handwheel. The tow ball
arm is not locked. This is indicated by
the warning tone and the handwheel
projects about five millimeters (0.2
inch) from its housing.
4. Manually turn the tow ball arm steadily
from its midway position to the stop in
the stowage position. The tow ball arm
automatically locks in the end position.
The locking process is clearly audible
if the level of background noise is not
too high. When the locking process is
completed, the warning tone stops and
the handwheel will return to its original
position.
5. Turn the key counterclockwise and
remove it.
