IN AN EMERGENCY
Before starting to tow,
turn the ignition key to
MAR and then to STOP.
Do not remove the key. If the
key is removed, the steering lock
engages automatically which pre-
vents the wheels being turned.
While the car is being
towed with the engine
off, remember that the
brake pedal and steering will re-
quire more effort as you no
longer have the benefit of the
power brakes and power steer-
ing. Do not use flexible cables to
tow. Avoid jerking. Whilst tow-
ing, ensure that the coupling to
the vehicle does not damage the
surrounding components.
The car can be lifted
from the side providing
the hydraulic jack arm is
fitted with a special bracket in
the plate housing.
WITH AN ARM HOIST
Jack up the car by arranging the ends
of the arms in the areas shown in
fig. 45.
IF THE CAR NEEDS
TO BE TOWED
A tow hitch is provided with the car.
To fasten the tow hitch:
1) Take the tow eye from the spare
wheel in the boot.
When towing the car,
you must comply with
the specific traffic regula-
tions regarding the tow hitch and
how to tow on the road.
