6. Attach the unlocking cable to the hitching plate on the towing vehicle.
Examples of how to attach the hitching cable
If the hitching ring is not correctly connected to the hitching hook, the trailer will become separated from the
towing vehicle. In this case the unlocking cable actuates the parking brake (which then becomes an emergency
brake).
To ensure that the device fulfils its function correctly, the unlocking cable:
- MUST NOT be wound around the jockey wheel, as this will disable emergency braking;
- MUST NOT be taut or obstructed, as this could activate emergency braking during towing;
- MUST be routed as straight as possible and not be obstructed at any point;
- MUST be sufficiently long to allow cornering.
IMPORTANT
7. Connect the electrical cable plug controlling the lamps, indicators, etc. to the socket on the towing vehicle.
8. Remove the parking brake:
- Remove the wheel chocks if necessary and store them;
- Perform the following operations simultaneously on the parking brake:
Press the unlocking button (9);
Lower the handle (10) fully.
