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 steer-
ing lock engages automatically re-
sulting in the impossibility to steer the
wheels.
WARNING
When towing, remember
that without the help of the
servobrake and power steering, a
greater effort is required on the ped-
al and steering wheel. Do not use
flexible cables for towing and avoid
jerks. During towing operations make
sure that fastening the joint to the car
does not damage the components in
contact with it. When towing the car,
you must comply with the specific
traffic regulations regarding the tow
ring and how to tow on the road.
