WARNINGS
The brake servo and the power
steering pump do not operate
unless the engine is running. Press
the brake pedal harder and allow for
increased stopping distances and heavier
steering. CAUTIONS
Too much tension in the tow rope
could cause damage to your vehicle
or the vehicle that is towing.
Do not use a rigid tow bar on the
front towing eye.
Select neutral when your vehicle is
being towed.
For vehicles with AWD, in the event
of a breakdown or mechanical failure
of the transmission your vehicle must
be recovered with either ALLwheels on
the ground or transported with ALL
wheels off the ground. Drive off slowly and smoothly without
jerking the vehicle that is towing.
Vehicles with automatic
transmission
CAUTIONS
If a speed of 20 km/h (12 mph) and
a distance of 20 kilometres (12 miles)
is to be exceeded the drive wheels
must be lifted clear of the ground. It is recommended not to tow with
the drive wheels on the ground.
However, if it is required to move the
vehicle from a dangerous location, do not
tow your vehicle faster than 20 km/h (12
mph) or further than 20 kilometres (12
miles). Do not tow your vehicle backwards. CAUTIONS
In the event of a mechanical failure
of the transmission the drive wheels
must be lifted clear of the ground.
Do not tow your vehicle if the
ambient temperature is below 0ºC
(32ºF).

Vehicle recovery

Insert the screw-in towing eye into the
wheel brace.
Removing the wheel trim
Type one
Insert the flat end of the wheel brace
between the rim and the trim and carefully
remove the trim.
Type two
1. Insert the wheel trim remover.
2. Remove the wheel trim.
Note:Make sure that you pull the wheel
trim remover at right angles to the trim.
Removing a road wheel WARNINGS
Park your vehicle in such a position
that neither the traffic nor you are
hindered or endangered.
Set up a warning triangle.
Make sure that the vehicle is on firm,
level ground with the wheels
pointing straight ahead.
Switch off the ignition and apply the
parking brake.
If your vehicle has a manual
transmission, select first or reverse
gear. If it has an automatic
transmission, select park. Have the passengers leave the
vehicle.
Secure the diagonally opposite
wheel with an appropriate block or
wheel chock.
Make sure that the arrows on
directional tyres point in the direction
of rotation when the vehicle is
moving forwards. If you have to fit a spare
wheel with the arrows pointing in the
opposite direction, have the tyre refitted
in the correct direction by a properly
trained technician. Do not work underneath the vehicle
when it is supported only by a jack.
Make sure that the jack is vertical to
the jacking point and the base is flat
on the ground.
CAUTION
Do not lay alloy wheels face down on
the ground, this will damage the
paint.
