PRACTICAL INFORMATION
TOWING YOUR VEHICLE
Your vehicle can only be towed at
the front. Lifting (2 wheels only on the
road)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle by
the wheels.
Never use the radiator crossmember.
When your vehicle is be-
ing towed with the engine
switched off, there is no brak-
ing or steering assistance.
Without lifting

You should always use a towbar.
The removable towing eye is stored
in the spare wheel, under the boot
carpet.
Unclip the bottom of the cover,
Screw in the towing eye until it
locks.
Place the gear lever in posi-
tion N for the "SensoDrive"

lation in order to comply with
the regulations concerning the

must be carried out at very low speed
over a very short distance (in accor-
dance with the legislation in force).
In all other cases, your vehicle must
be transported on a trailer.
