Towing with wheels on the ground
Towing eye fi xings are located at the front and at the rear of the vehicle.
To access them:
Carefully lift the access cover.
Release it by pressing on the lower part.
A lug keeps the cover attached to the bumper, so that it does not become
lost.
The ignition key must be in position M to retain steering.
Use a bar with attachments to the towing eyes as above.
Vehicles with manual gearbox (diesel models)
For vehicles with a manual gearbox, the gear lever must be in "neutral",
otherwise some components in the braking system could become
damaged and impair braking assistance the next time the engine is
started.

Movable towing eye
The towing ring is detachable and
can be fi tted either at the front or at
the rear of the vehicle. It is stowed
in the jack's protective holder in the
spare wheel.
When the engine is not running, the steering and the braking
are no longer assisted.
If you are towing another vehicle, the latter must be free-
wheeling (gearbox in neutral).
Towing
at low speed over a
very short distance
is authorised
in exceptional cases depending
on the regulations in force.
Otherwise, it is necessary to
have your vehicle transported
on a recovery truck.
