FASTENING THE TOW RING
Proceed as follows:
❒take the tow hook Bfrom the sup-
port;
❒tighten the ring on the rear fig. 48 or
front threaded pin fig. 49.
fig. 48F0H0204mfig. 49F0H0205m
Before towing, turn the key
to MAR and then to STOP
without extracting it. The steering co-
lumn will automatically lock when
the key is removed and the wheels
cannot be steered.
WARNING
The power brakes and
power steering will not work
while the car is being towed. More
effort on the brake pedal and steering
wheel will therefore be required. Do
not use flexible cables when towing
and avoid jerky movements. Make su-
re not to damage parts in contact
with the car while towing. Respect
the specific rules of the Highway Co-
de when towing the car specifically in
relation to the towing device and the
behaviour to maintain on the road.
WARNING
Do not start the engine whi-
le towing the car.
