Emergencies
Notes for the driver of the towed vehicle
Leave the ignition on, so that the steering is
not blocked, and the electronic parking brake
may be deactivated and the turn signals and
wash/wipe operated.
More strength is required at the steering
wheel as the power steering does not oper-
ate when the engine is switched off.
You should depress the brake much harder
as the brake servo does not operate. Avoid
hitting the towing vehicle.
Bear in mind the information and instruc-
tions in the manual of the vehicle to be towed.
Notes for the driver of the towing vehicle
Accelerate with particular care and cau-
tion. Avoid sharp manoeuvres.
Brake earlier than usual and smoothly.
Bear in mind the information and instruc-
tions in the manual of the towed vehicle.
Tow rope or tow bar
It is safer for the vehicle to be towed using a
tow bar, avoiding damage to the vehicle. A
tow rope should only be used if a tow bar is
not available.
A tow rope should be slightly elastic to avoid
damage to both vehicles. It is advisable to
use a tow rope made of synthetic fibre or sim-
ilarly elastic material.
Only attach the tow rope or the tow bar to
the towing eyes provided or a towing bracket.
If the vehicle has a factory-fitted towing de-
vice, towing with a tow bar is only permitted
if it has been specially designed to be instal-
led on a tow hitch page 288.
When the vehicle has to be towed:
Check whether the vehicle may be towed
page 54, Cases where towing the ve-
hicle is not permitted.
The vehicle can be towed using a tow bar or
tow rope in the normal way, with all four
wheels on the road; it can also be towed with
either the front or rear wheels lifted off the
road.
Switch the ignition on.
Put the gearbox lever in neutral or the se-
lector lever in the N position page 213.
Do not allow the vehicle to be towed at
speeds of over 50 km/h (30 mph).
The vehicle must not be towed further than
50 km (30 miles).
If a breakdown lorry is used, vehicles with
automatic transmission are only allowed to
be towed with the front wheels suspended.
Towing vehicles with four-wheel drive
(4Drive)
Four-wheel drive vehicles (4Drive) can be
towed using a tow bar or tow rope. If the vehi-
cle is towed with the front or rear axle sus-
pended, the engine must be switched off,
otherwise the transmission may be damaged.
Cases where towing the vehicle is not per-
mitted
If, due to a fault, the gearbox is out of lubri-
cant.
If the vehicle battery is discharged, be-
cause the steering remains locked and, if ap-
propriate, the electronic parking brake can-
not be deactivated or the electronic lock of
the steering column released.
If a distance above 50 km needs to be trav-
elled.
When, for example, after an accident, the
smooth rotation of the wheels or the steering
operation cannot be guaranteed.
When the vehicle is to tow another vehicle:
Observe legal requirements.
Keep in mind the instructions in the manual
on towing vehicles.
CAUTION
If there is no oil in the gearbox or no lubri-
cant in the automatic transmission the car
