Emergency towing
The towing eyelet is located in the tool bag, under the floor of the trunk, with the spare tire. This eyelet
must be screwed into the positions provided on the right sides of either the front or rear bumper (see
illustration). To attach the towing eyelet:
· Use a coin to pry open the lower edge of the cover (A).
· Screw the towing eyelet in place, first by hand and then using the tire iron (B) until it is securely in
place.
After the car has been towed, the eyelet should be removed and returned to the tool bag. Press the cover
back into position.
Precautions when the car is in tow
· The steering wheel must be unlocked. Turn the ignition key to position I or II.
