Before tightening the ring
carefully clean the thread-
ed housing. Before beginning to
tow the car, make sure that the
ring is firmly tightened in its
threaded housing.
WARNING
Do not start the engine
when towing the car. Before
starting to tow, turn the ignition key
to MAR and back to STOP again
without removing it. Removing the
key automatically engages the
steering lock resulting in the impos-
sibility to steer the wheels. When
towing remember that without the
help of the engine brake and pow-
er steering greater effort is required
on the pedal and steering wheel. Do
not use flexible cables for towing
and avoid jerks. During towing op-
erations make sure that fastening
the joint to the car does not damage
the components in contact with it.
When towing the car, it is compul-
sory to follow specific traffic regu-
lations concerning both the towing
device and behaviour on the road.
