Practical information
Trailers with LED lamps are not
compatible with the wiring harness of this
device.
To know the technical features, and in
particular the towable weights for your
vehicle, refer to the corresponding section.
For advice on driving safely when Towing
a trailer, refer to the corresponding
section.
A. Locked position; the locking wheel is in
contact with the towball (no gap).
B. Unlocked position; the locking wheel is
no longer in contact with the towball (gap
of around 5 mm).
Before each use
Check that the towball is correctly fitted,
verifying the follow points:
- the green mark on the locking wheel
is in line with the green mark on the
towball,
- the locking wheel is in contact with the
towball (position A),
- the security key lock is on and the key
removed; the locking wheel can no
longer be operated,
- the towball must not be able to move in
its carrier; test by shaking it with your
hand.
If the towball is not locked, the trailer can
detach – accident risk!
During use
Never release the locking system with a
trailer or load carrier on the towball.
Never exceed the maximum authorised
weight for the vehicle – the Gross Train
Weight or GTW.
It is essential that the maximum
authorised load be complied with on the
towing device: if it is exceeded, this device
may detach from the vehicle, which is a
serious accident risk.
Check that the trailer lamps work
correctly.
Before setting off, check the adjustment of
the headlamp beam height.
For more information on Adjusting the
headlamp beam height, refer to the
corresponding section.
Following use
When travelling without a trailer or load
on a towbar-mounted carrier, the towball
must be removed and the protective plug
inserted in the carrier. This measure
applies particularly where the towball
might obscure visibility of the number
plate or its lighting.
