TOW HITCH INSTALLATION
The device for towing a trailer (tow
hitch) fig. 3must be fixed to the body
by an expert in accordance with the
following instructions.The following must be used for the
mechanical connection:
– “CUNA 501” 1
stclass ball coupling
(CUNA NC 138-40 table);– “CUNA 501” 1
stclass socket cou-
pling (CUNA NC 438-40 table).
For the electric connection a 7-pole,
12-Volt coupling must be used (CU-
NA UNI 9128).
The electric coupling must be fixed
on a special mount to be attached to
the ball coupling.
The electrical functions for the cou-
pling must be connected as illustrat-
ed infig. 5.
In addition to the electrical connec-
tions (shown in the diagram that fol-
lows) only the lead for powering an
electrical brake and the lead to pow-
er a light inside the trailer not ex-
ceeding 15W may be connected to the
car's electrical system.
The electrical brake must be pow-
ered directly from the battery by
means of a lead with a cross-section
no less than 2.5 mm
