Versions with Dualogic
transmission
Make sure that the transmission is in
neutral (N) (checking that the car moves
when pushed) and proceed in the
same way as for towing a normal car
with a manual transmission. If the
gearbox cannot be put in neutral, do
not tow the car and contact a Fiat
Dealership.
WARNING
141)Before towing, turn the ignition key to
MAR-ON and then to STOP without
removing it. The steering column
will automatically lock when the key is
removed and the wheels cannot be
steered.
142)Before tightening the ring clean the
threaded housing thoroughly. Make sure
that the ring is fully screwed into the
housing before towing the car.
143)Whilst towing, remember that the
assistance of the brake servo and the
electric power steering is not available,
therefore greater force needs to be exerted
on the brake pedal and more effort is
required on the steering wheel. Do not use
flexible cables when towing and avoid
jerky movements. Make sure not to
damage parts in contact with the car while
towing. When towing the vehicle, you
must comply with all specific traffic
regulations, both in terms of the towing
device and behaviour on the road. Do not
start the engine while towing the vehicle.144)The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the road.
The car may be towed for short distances
when a dedicated device is used in
compliance with the Highway Code (rigid
bar), and in order to move the vehicle
on the road in preparation for towing or
transport via a tow truck (on Cross versions
do NOT use the rear tow hook for
transport on a tow truck: use the front tow
hook). Tow hooks MUST NOT be used
to tow vehicles off the road or where there
are obstacles (e.g. snow, mud, etc.) and/or
for towing operations using cables or
other non-rigid devices, or if there are
obstructions preventing the car from
moving forward normally with the
transmission in neutral. In compliance with
the above conditions, towing must take
place with the two vehicles (one towing,
the other towed) aligned as much as
possible along the same centre line, to
prevent excessive lateral forces on the
towing devices.
