TOWING PROCEDURE FOR VERSIONS WITH SPEEDGEAR
AND DUALOGIC TRANSMISSION
For versions with Speedgear or Dualogic transmission, carry out the
above procedure and see the Supplement annexed to this Owner
Handbook.
WARNING
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
resulting in the impossibility to steer the wheels.
WARNING
Do not start the engine when towing the vehicle.
WARNING
When towing, remember that without the help of the servobrake and power
steering, a greater effort is required on the pedal 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.
