WARNING
Before towing, turn the ignition key to
MAR and then
to STOP without
removing it. The steering column will
automatically lock when the key is removed
and the wheels cannot be steered.
WARNING
Before tightening the hook clean the
threaded housing thoroughly
. Make
sure that the hook is fully fastened in the
housing before towing the car.
WARNING
Whilst towing, remember that as the
assistance of the
brake servo and
the electric power assisted steering is not
available, greater force needs to be exerted
on the brake pedal and more effort is
required on the steering wheel. Do not use
flexible cables when towing and avoid jerky
movements. During towing, make sure that
the trailer hitch does not damage any
components it is touching. When towing the
car, it is compulsory to respect specific
highway code regulations relating to the tow
hook and procedures for towing on the
road. Do not start the engine while towing
the car.
