Towing using a towline
This section refers to one vehicle being towed behind another using a towline.
Before towing another vehicle, check applica- ble speed limit regulations.
Preparations and towing
CAUTION
For some transmission variants, it is not possible to shift from P position if theengine is switched off. Contact an author-ized Volvo workshop for assistance towingor call a professional towing service.
CAUTION
Note that the vehicle must always be towed with the wheels rolling forward.
Do not tow a vehicle with automatictransmission at a speed greater than80 km/h (50 mph) or for a distancegreater than 80 km (50 miles).
WARNING
Ignition mode
II must be active – all
airbags are deactivated in ignition mode I.
Always have the remote key in thevehicle when it is towed.
WARNING
The brake and steering servos do not work when the engine is off – it takesabout 5 times more pressure on the brakepedal and steering requires much moreeffort than normal.
1. Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
2. Attach the towline to the towing eyelet.
3. Put the vehicle in ignition mode II – with-
out pressing the brake pedal, turn the start knob clockwise and hold it there for about4 seconds. Release the knob, which willautomatically return to its original position.
4. Move the gear selector to neutral (N) and release the parking brake. If the battery charge level is too low, it may not be possible to release the parkingbrake. Connect an auxiliary battery to thevehicle if the battery is discharged.
> The towing vehicle can now start driv-ing. 5. Keep the towline taut when the towing
vehicle slows down by applying light pres- sure to the brake pedal. This will helpavoid jarring movements.
6. Be prepared to apply the brakes to stop the vehicle.
Jump startingDo not tow the vehicle to start the engine. Usean auxiliary battery if the start battery's chargelevel is so low that the engine cannot bestarted.
CAUTION
Attempting to tow with the engine running could result in damage to the three-waycatalytic converter.

ble.
Fasten the eyelet securing by, for example, inserting a lug wrench * through it and
using this as a lever.
CAUTION
It is important that the towing eye is screwed in securely as far as possible.
To consider before using the towing eyelet
In certain conditions, the towing eyelet may be used to pull the vehicle onto a flat-bed tow truck. The vehicle's position andground clearance determines if this is pos-sible.
If the incline of the tow truck is too steepor if the ground clearance under the vehi-cle is insufficient, attempting to pull it up using the towing eyelet may result in dam-age.
If necessary, lift the vehicle using the towtruck's lifting device instead of using thetowing eyelet.
WARNING
No person or object should be behind the tow truck when the vehicle is lifted ontothe bed of the truck.
CAUTION
The towing eyelet is only intended for tow- ing on roads – not for pulling vehicles fromditches or any similar purpose involvingsevere strain. Call a tow truck for profes-sional assistance.
Removing the towing eyelet–Unscrew the towing eyelet after use and return it to the foam block. Replace the cover on the bumper.

Recovery
This section refers to transporting the vehicle with a tow truck or similar vehicle.
Call a professional towing service for assis- tance. In certain conditions, the towing eyelet can be used to pull the vehicle onto a flatbed towtruck. The vehicle's location and ground clearance determine if it can be lifted onto a tow truck. Ifthe incline of the tow truck is too steep or ifthe ground clearance under the vehicle isinsufficient, attempting to pull it up may resultin damage. In this case, the vehicle shouldonly be lifted with the tow truck's lifting equip-ment.
WARNING
No person or object should be behind the tow truck when the vehicle is lifted ontothe bed of the truck.
CAUTION
The towing eyelet is only intended for tow- ing on roads, and must not be used to pull
vehicles from ditches or any similar pur-pose involving severe strain. Call a towtruck for professional assistance.
