TOWING YOUR VEHICLE
Special features of the
automatic gearbox
When being towed with four wheels on
the road, it is essential to observe the
following rules:


- selector lever in position N
,

- tow the vehicle at a speed below
30 mph (50 km/h) over a distance
limited to 30 miles (50 km) maximum,

- do not add oil to the gearbox.
When towing with the engine switched
off, there is no braking or steering
assistance.
Without lifting (4 wheels on the
road)
You should always use a towbar.
The removable towing eye is inside the
engine compartment.

From the front


- unclip the cover by pressing the
bottom part,

- screw in the removable towing eye
until it locks.

Lifting (2 wheels on the road only)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle
using professional lifting equipment.

VEHICLES FITTED WITH A MANUAL
GEARBOX (diesel version)
In the case of vehicles fi tted with a
manual gearbox, the gear lever must
be in the neutral position. Failure to
observe this special condition may
result in damage to certain braking
components and the absence of
braking assistance the next time the
engine is started. Put the gear lever in neutral.
Failure to observe this rule may
result in damage to certain
components.
