driving not aligned with yours, vehicle driving
in a transverse or opposite way on the same
lane, bend with a small radius of curvature),

BROKEN-DOWN VEHICLE
TOWING
REAR WHEEL DRIVE (RWD) VERSIONS
It is recommended to tow the vehicle
with all four wheels lifted from the
ground on the platform of a roadside
assistance vehicle.
If a breakdown truck with platform is not
available, the vehicle must be towed with
the rear wheels LIFTED from the ground
(using a trailer or special equipment
allowing lifting of the rear wheels).
IMPORTANT Towing vehicles without
complying with the above mentioned
prescriptions can cause serious damage
to the vehicle.FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) VERSIONS
It is recommended to tow the vehicle
with all four wheels lifted from the
ground on the platform of a roadside
assistance vehicle.
IMPORTANT Avoid lifting the front (or
rear) wheels only, using a trailer or
vehicle that allows lifting the wheels of
one axle only. Lifting the front (or rear)
wheels only while towing might damage
the transmission or the transfer unit.
IMPORTANT If a vehicle is towed without
complying with the above requirements,
the transmission and/or the transfer unit
might be seriously damaged. Damage due
to incorrect towing is not covered by
warranty.
TOWING THE VEHICLE
154) 155)
In order to be able to tow the vehicle,
which has been in an accident or has
broken down, on the road surface and
only for short distances, a tow hook is
provided in the tools container inside the
boot.
Proceed as follows to use the tow hook:
unhook the cap fig. 148 on the front or
rear fender (where provided) fig. 148,
pressing on the upper part;
14808136S0001EM
157
Page 160 of 232

take the tow hook from its housing in
the boot and carefully clean the threaded
housing on the vehicle before using it;
tighten the vehicle's tow hook in its
place for about 11 turns.
IMPORTANT The largest work angle of
the cable to fix on the tow hook must not
exceed 15°, as shown in fig. 150.
WARNING
154)Move the ignition device to ON and
then to STOP, without opening the door.
155)The brake servo and the
electromechanical power steering will not
work while the vehicle is being towed. You
will therefore need to apply more force on
the brake pedal and steering wheel. Do not
use flexible ropes when towing, and avoid
jerky movements. During towing, make sure
that the trailer hitch does not damage any
components it is touching. When towing the
car, you must comply with all specific traffic
regulations and adopt an appropriate
driving behaviour. Do not start the engine
while towing the car. Before tightening the
ring, clean the threaded housing thoroughly.
Make sure that the ring is fully screwed into
the housing before towing the car.
