Take the vehicle out of gear or move the selector lever into position N if the

vehicle is fitted with an automatic gearbox.

Please note that the brake servo unit and power steering only operate if the

engine is running. If the engine is not running, significantly more physical force

is required to depress the brake pedal and steer the vehicle.

If using a tow rope, ensure that it is always kept taught.

General information on towing

Both drivers should be familiar with the problems which might occur while a

vehicle is being towed. Unskilled drivers should not attempt to tow in another

vehicle or to be towed in.

The vehicle must be transported on a special breakdown vehicle or trailer if it

is not possible to tow in the vehicle in the way described or if the towing dis-

tance is greater than 50 km.

If the gearbox has no oil, your vehicle must be towed with the front axle raised

clear of the ground or on a breakdown vehicle or trailer.

To protect both vehicles when tow-starting or towing, the tow rope should be

elastic. Thus one should only use plastic fibre rope or a rope made out of a

similarly elastic material.

Attach the tow rope or the tow bar to the towing eyes » page 191 or

» page 192 to the detachable ball head of the towing device » page 141.

WARNING

■

When towing, exercise increased caution.

■

Do not use spiral rope for towing » Fig. 189- , the towing eye may un-

screw from the vehicle - risk of accident.

■

Ensure tow rope is not twisted - risk of accident.

CAUTION

■

Do not start engine by towing - there is a risk of damaging the engine parts.

The battery from another vehicle can be used as a jump-start aid » page 189,

Jump-starting.

■

There is always a risk of excessive stresses and damage resulting at the

points to which you attach the tow rope or tow bar when you attempt to tow a

vehicle which is not standing on a paved road.

Note

We recommend using a tow rope from ŠKODA Original Accessories, which is

available from a ŠKODA Partner.
