If the electrical system has
failed, clearly identify the vehicle
being towed by placing a sign or
a warning triangle in the rear
window.
The tow fittings used should be
on the same side on both vehi-
cles.
Should it prove impossible to
avoid mounting the tow bar at
an offset angle, please follow
the following:
Maneuvering capabi lity is lim-
ited going around corners.
 The tow bar will generate lat-
eral forces if it is secured with
an offset. Observe the following notes
when using the tow rope:

Use nylon ropes or straps,
which will enable the vehicle
to be towed without jerking.
 Make sure the tow rope is not
twisted when fastening.
 Check the fastening of the
tow fitting and tow rope in reg-
ular intervals.
 Do not exceed a towing
speed of 30 mph/50 km/h.
 Do not exceed a towing dis-
tance of 3 miles/5 km.
 When starting to tow the vehi-
cle, make sure that the tow
rope is taut.
The screw-in tow fitting should
always be carried in the vehicle.
The tow fitting can be screwed
in at the front or rear of the vehi-
cle.
Safety information
WARNING
If the approved gross vehicle
weight of the towing vehicle is
lighter than the vehicle to be
towed, the tow fitting can tear off
or it will not be possible to control
the vehicle's response. There is a
risk of an accident. Make sure
that the gross vehicle weight of
the towing vehicle is heavier than
the vehicle to be towed.

When cleaning the vehicle, use
only neutral wheel cleaners hav-
ing a pH value from 5 to 9. Do
not use abrasive cleaning
agents or steam jets above 140
°F/60 °C. Follow the manufac-
turer's instructions.
Aggressive, acidic or alkaline
cleaning agents can destroy the
protective layer of adjacent
components, such as the brake
disc.
After cleaning, apply the brakes
briefly to dry them. The heat
generated during braking dries
brake discs and brake pads and
protects them against corrosion.
Carefully clean components
such as the radiator grille or
door handles with plenty of
water, possibly with shampoo
added, particularly when they have been exposed to road salt.
Environmental influences can
cause surface soiling of rubber
parts and a loss of gloss. Use
only water and suitable cleaning
agents for cleaning.
Treat especially worn rubber
parts with rubber care agents at
regular intervals. When cleaning
rubber seals, do not use any sili-
con-containing vehicle care
products in order to avoid dam-
age or noises.
Clean with a microfiber cloth.
Dampen cloth lightly with water.
Do not soak the roofliner.

Open hook-and-loop fasteners on

NOTICE
Cleansers that contain alcohol or

ers, fuel, or such, can damage
plastic parts. There is a risk of
damage to property. Clean with a
microfiber cloth. Dampen cloth
lightly with water.
