››› 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. »
