Towing
Find out the highest legal speed for towing
before towing the car.
1. Press the remote control key into the igni-
tion switch to unlock the steering lock so
that the car can be steered, see page 96.
2. The remote control key must remain in the
ignition switch while the car is being towed.
3. Ensure the towrope is always taut by gently
depressing the brake pedal to avoid violent
jerks.
4. Be prepared to brake to stop.
WARNING
Insert the remote control key in the ignition
switch to unlock the steering lock (so that
the car can be steered) before towing.
WARNING
The steering lock stays in the position it was
in when the power was cut off. The steering
lock must be unlocked before towing. The
ignition must be in position II. Never remove
the remote control key from the ignition
switch while driving or when the car is being
towed.
WARNING
The brake servo and power steering do not
work when the engine is switched off. The
brake pedal must be pressed about five
times harder than normal, and the steering
will be considerably heavier than normal.
Manual gearbox
±Move gear lever into neutral and release
the parking brake.
Automatic gearbox
±Move the gear selector to position Nand
release the parking brake.
IMPORTANT
Note that the car must always be towed with
the wheels rolling forward.
Cars with automatic gearbox must not
be towed at speeds above 80 km/h or
further than 80 km.
Jump starting
Do not tow the car to bump start it. Use a donor
battery if the battery is discharged to the extent
that the engine does not start, see page 99.
IMPORTANT
Bump starting the car can damage the cat-
alytic converter.
Towing eye
Use the towing eye if the car needs to be towed
on the road. The towing eye is attached in the
recess on the right-hand side of the front or
rear bumper.
After use, unscrew the towing eye and return it
into the cargo area.
Fitting the towing eye
