Advice
● After towing, remove the towline anchorage
by turning it clockwise and put the cover
b ac
k in place. CAUTION

pletely and firmly tightened. Otherwise, it

ing. Fitting the rear towline anchorage
Fig. 195
On the rear bumper, to the right
hand side: Tow ring in position The location for the removable towline an-
chorage is on the right-hand side of the rear
bumper
››› Fig. 195 . For
vehicles with a facto-
ry

fitted towing bracket , there is no fitting be-
hind the cover to insert the towline anchor-
age. For towing, fit and use the tow hitch
››› page 179, ››› . Note the instructions for towing
››› page 256.
Fitting the towline anchorage to the rear for
vehicles without factory fitted tow hitch ● Take the towline anchorage from the vehi-
cle tool kit in the luggage compartment
››› page 244 .
● Pr e

ss on the upper cover and carefully re-
move it back. This may require some
strength. Allow the cover to hang.
● Screw in the towline anchorage into its po-
sition anticlockwise as far as it will go ›
›› .
Use a suitable tool to firmly tighten the tow-
line anchorage in its location.
● After towing, remove the towline anchorage
by turning it clockwise and put the cover
b ac

k in place. CAUTION
● The towline anchorage must always be
completely and firmly tightened. Otherwise,
it could be released while towing and tow-
starting.
● Vehicles with a factory fitted towing brack-
et, can only be used for towing with a tow
bar, specially designed to fit on a tow hitch
ball. Otherwise, the tow hitch ball and the ve-
hicle may be damaged. Otherwise, a tow rope
should be used. 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
●
Leave the ignition on to avoid locking the
steering wheel, to release the electronic
parking brake and to activate the turn sig-
nals, the horn as well as the window wipers
and window washers.
● As the power assisted steering does not
work if the engine is not running, you will
need more strength to steer than normally.
