TOWING : breakdown (2/2)
Only use the front 3 and rear 7 towing
points (never use the driveshafts or any
other part of the vehicle). These towing
points may only be used for pulling.
They must never be used for lifting the
vehicle directly or indirectly.
Access to towing points
Front towing point
Press zone A and keep depressed
while pulling zone B to open flap 4.
Rear towing point
Press zone C and keep depressed
while pulling zone D to open flap 6.
Tighten the towing hitch 5 fully: first
by hand until it stops then finish by lock-
ing it with the wheel brace.
Do not leave the tools unse-
cured inside the vehicle as
they may come loose under
braking.
Use the towing hitch 5 only (refer to the
information on “Tools” in Section 5).

– Use a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed
must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– In all cases, it is advisable not to
exceed 15.5 mph (25 km/h).
When the engine is
stopped, steering and brak-
ing assistance are not op-
erational.
