Fitting the front towline anchorage Fig. 135
On the right-hand side of the front
bumper: Remove the cover. Fig. 136
On the right-hand side of the front
bumper: Screw in the towline anchorage. The location for the removable tow ring is on
the right-hand side of the front bumper be-
hind a cover
››› Fig. 135 .
The t o
wline anchorage should always be kept
in the vehicle. Note the instructions for towing
››› page 184.
Fitting the towline anchorage
● Take the towline anchorage from the vehi-
cle tool kit in the luggage compartment
››› page 172.
● Pre

ss the upper part of the cover ››› Fig. 135
(arrow) to disengage and release the cover.
● Remove the cover and leave it hanging
from the vehicle.
● Screw in the tow ring into its housing anti-
clockwise as far as it will go ››
› Fig. 136 ››› .
Use a suitable tool to firmly tighten the tow-
line anchorage in its location.
● After towing, remove the tow ring by turn-
ing it clockwise .
● Plac

e the cover's upper tab on the opening
of the bumper and carefully guide the lower
tab on the edge of the opening. If necessary,
press the lower tab from below.
● Press the lower area of the cover until the
lower tab engages in the bumper. CAUTION
The towline anchorage must always be com-
pletely and firmly tightened. Otherwise, it
could be released while towing and tow-start-
ing. Towing advice
Towing requires some experience, especially
when using a tow rope. Both drivers should
be familiar with the technique required for
towing. For this reason, inexperienced drivers
should abstain.
While driving, avoid excessive traction forces
and jerking. When towing on an unpaved
road, there is always a risk of overloading
and damaging the anchorage points.
If the vehicle is towed, with the hazard warn-
ing lights on and the ignition switched on,
the turn signal may be used to indicate
changes of direction. Simply operate the turn
signal lever as usual. Meanwhile, the hazard
warning lights will go off. When the turn sig-
nal lever is returned to the rest position, the
hazard warning lights will be turned on auto-
matically.
Notes for the driver of the towed vehicle
●
Keep the ignition running to prevent the
steering wheel from locking and also to allow
the use of the turn signals, horn, windscreen
wipers and washers.
● As the power assisted steering does not
work if the engine is not running, you will
need more strength to steer than normally.
● The brake must be depressed must harder
as the brake servo does not operate. Avoid
hitting the towing vehicle. »

Technical featuresUrban
cycleMeasurement of the urban cycle starts with
an engine cold start. City driving is then si-
mulated at between 0 and 50 km/h (0 and
31 mph).
Road
cycle
In the road cycle simulation, the car under-
goes frequent acceleration and braking in all
gears, as in normal everyday driving. The
road speed ranges from 0 to 120 km/h (0
and 75 mph).
Com-
binedThe average combined consumption is calcu-
lated with a weighting of around 37 % for the
urban cycle and 63 % for the road cycle.
CO
2
emis-
sions of
the
combi-
nationThe exhaust gases are collected during both
driving cycles to calculate carbon dioxide
emissions (urban and road). The gas compo-
sition is analysed below to evaluate the CO 2
content and other emissions. Note
● The kerb weight may vary according to the
vehicle equipment. This could raise consump-
tion and the CO 2 emissions slightly.
● In practice, consumption values could be
different to the values calculated based on
the 715/2007/EC or 80/1268/EEC regula-
tions. Wheels
Tyre pressure, snow chains, wheel
bolts Tyre pressures
The sticker with the tyre pressure values can
be found on the inside of the fuel tank flap.
The tyre pressure values given there are for
cold tyres. The slightly raised pressures of
w
arm ty

res must not be reduced. ››› Snow chains
Snow chains may be fitted only to the
front
wheels .
C on

sult the section “wheels” of this manual.
Wheel bolts
After the wheels have been changed, the
tightening torque
of the wheel bolts should
be checked as soon as possible with a torque
wrench ››› . The tightening torque for steel
and alloy wheels is 140 Nm. WARNING
● Check the tyre pressure at least once per
month. Checking the tyre pressure is very im-
portant. If the tyre pressure is too high or too
low, there is an increased danger of accidents
- particularly at high speeds. ●
If the tightening torque of the wheel bolts
is too low, they could loosen while the vehi-
cle is in motion. Risk of accident! If the tight-
ening torque is too high, the wheel bolts and
threads can be damaged. Note
We recommend that you ask your Technical
Service for information about appropriate
wheel, tyre and snow chain size. 199
