Remorquage : dépannage (HFE - Renault)
TOWING: breakdown recovery (2/2)
Only use the front 5 and rear 8 towing
points
(never use the drive shafts or any other
part of the vehicle).
These towing points may only be used
for towing: never use them for lifting the
vehicle directly or indirectly.
Access to towing points
Front towing point
Press zone A then zone B to open
flap 4.
Rear towing point
Press zone C then zone D to open
flap 7.
Tighten the tow eye 6 fully: as much
as possible by hand at first, then finish
tightening it using the wheelbrace or,
depending on the vehicle, the lever.
Only use the towing eye 6 and the
wheelbrace 3 included in the tool kit
(please refer to the information under
“Tools” in Section 5).
Do not leave the tools unse-
cured inside the vehicle as
they may come loose under
braking.
– 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 any case, it is advisable not to
exceed 16 mph (25 km/h).
– Do not push the vehicle if the
steering column is locked.
