key is removed, the steering lock
engages automatically which pre-
vents the wheels being turned.

ing. Do not use flexible cables to
tow. Avoid jerking. Whilst tow-
ing, ensure that the coupling to
the vehicle does not damage the
surrounding components.
The car can be lifted

tions regarding the tow hitch and
