Towing procedure
The steering wheel must be un-
locked and the ignition key must be
in position M (ignition on) to pro-
vide stop lights and hazard warning
lights on the towed vehicle. At night
the vehicle must have its lights on.
Unhitch the trailer, etc., if one is being
towed.
You must observe the towing regu-
lations which apply in the country in
which you are driving: do not exceed
the towing weight for your vehicle.
Contact an approved Dealer.
Front and rear towing points
Only use the front 1 and rear 2
towing points.
W h e n t h e e n g i n e i s
stopped, steering and brak-
ing assistance are not op-
erational.
Do not leave the tools unse-
cured inside the vehicle as
they may come loose under
braking.
– Use a rigid towing bar (except for off-road recovery). If a rope or cable
is used (where the law allows this), the vehicle being towed must be able
to brake.
–

A
vehicle must not be towed if it is not fit to be driven.
–

A

void accelerating or braking suddenly when towing, as this may result in
damage being caused to the vehicle.
–

When towing a vehicle, it is advisable not to exceed 15 mph (25

km/h).
These towing points may only be used
for towing: never use them for lifting the
vehicle directly or indirectly.

ACCESSORIES
Use of transmission/
receiving devices
(telephones, CB
equipment etc.).
Telephones and CB equipment with
integrated aerials may cause inter-
ference to the original electronic
systems fitted to the vehicle: it is ad-
visable only to use equipment with
an external aerial.
Furthermore, we remind you of
the need to comply with the legis-
lation in force concerning the use
of such equipment.

Fire hazard.
–


N

o work may be carried out on
the vehicle’s electrical or radio
circuits, except by approved
dealers: an incorrectly connected
system may result in damage
being caused to the electrical
equipment and/or the compo-
nents connected to it;
–

i

f the vehicle is fitted with any
aftermarket electrical equip -
ment, make sure that the unit
is correctly protected by a fuse.
Establish the rating and position
of this fuse.
Before fitting an electrical or
electronic device (particu-
larly for transmitters/receiv-
ers: frequency bandwidth,
power level, position of the aerial
etc.), ensure that it is compatible
with your vehicle.
Contact an approved dealer for this
information.
Fitting after-market
accessories
If you wish to install acces-
sories on the vehicle: con-
sult an approved dealer.
Also, to ensure the correct opera-
tion of your vehicle, and to avoid
any risk to your safety, we recom-
mend that you use only specific ac-
cessories, designed for your vehi-
cle, which are the only accessories
for which the manufacturer will pro-
vide a warranty.
If you are using an anti-theft
device, only attach it to the
brake pedal.

–

It
is important to comply with the towing weights, governed by local legislation in each country and, in particular, laid down in
the Road Traffic Regulations. Contact an authorised dealer for any towing equipment m\
odifications.
–

For
vehicles fitted with a trailer, the gross train weight (vehicle + trailer) must never be exceeded . However, the following
is tolerated:
–

the Maximum permissible wei
ght at the rear may be exceeded by no more than 15%,
–

the maximum permissible all-
up weight may be exceeded by no more than 10% or 100 kg (whichever occu\
rs first).
In

either case, the maximum speed of the vehicle and trailer must not exceed 60 mph (100 kph) and the tyre pressures must
be increased by 0.2 bar (3 PSI).
–

The
engine output and climbing capability are reduced with altitude. We recommend that the maximum load be reduced by 10%
at an altitude of 1,000 metres and by an additional 10% for each 1,000 m\
etres thereafter.
The weights shown are for a basic vehicle without options: they will vary depending on the equipment level of your ve-
hicle. Please consult an authorised dealer.
