WARNING
Clean the threaded housing
carefully before fastening
the ring. Make sure that the ring is se-
curely fastened before towing the car.
WARNING
Release the steering wheel
lock before towing (see “Ig-

vehicle is being towed. You will there-
fore need to apply more force to the
brake pedal and steering wheel. Do
not use bendy cables for towing and
avoid jerking. Make sure not to dam-
age parts in contact with the car
while towing. Respect the rules of the
highway code when towing the car,
specifically in relation to the towing
device and road conduct.
WARNING
The front and rear tow
hooks should be used only
for emergencies on the road. You are
allowed to tow the car for short dis-
tances using an appropriate device in
accordance with the highway code
(a rigid bar), to move the vehicle on
the road in readiness for towing or
transporting via a breakdown vehicle.
Tow hooks MUST NOT be used to
tow vehicles off the road or where
there are obstacles and/or for tow-
ing operations using cables or other
non-rigid devices.
Respecting the above conditions,
towing must take place with two ve-
hicles (one towing, the other towed)
aligned as much as possible along the
same centre line.
