– Use a rigid towing bar.
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.
– Avoid accelerating or braking
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, it is ad -
visable not to exceed 15 mph
(25 km/h).

even though you are de -
pressing the brake pedal,
the lever can be released
manually.
To do this, unclip the cover at the
base of the lever.
Press simultaneously on button 2
and on the unlocking button on
