TOWING: breakdown (continued)
- RENAULT specifies the
use of 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.
- Do not accelerate or brake
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
- When towing a vehicle, do not
exceed 15 mph (25 km/h).
Towing a vehicle with
automatic transmission: special
information
Engine switched off: The gearbox is
no longer lubricated. It is preferable
to tow this type of vehicle on a
trailer or tow it with the front
wheels off the ground.
Under exceptional circumstances,
you may tow the vehicle with all
four wheels on the ground, only
going forward, with the gear lever in
the Neutral position, and for a
distance not exceeding 30 miles (50
km).
If the lever is stuck in P,
even though you are
depressing the brake pedal,
the lever can be released
manually.
To do this, unclip the upper section
of the cover at the base of the lever.
Press simultaneously on the mark
on the gaiter and the unlocking
button on the lever.
