CX) Notes
on towing vehicles
The vehicle can be towed with a tow-bar or tow­
rope. When the engine is not running, the gear­
box will not be adequately lubricated if the fol­
lowing speed/distance restrictions are not ob­
served:
- The vehicle must not be towed faster than
SO km/h.
- The vehicle must not be towed further than
SO km.
Additional notes on towing by breakdown
truck
If one of the axles has to be raised in order to
tow the vehicle, please refer to the following ta­
ble to determine the appropriate axle for your
gearbox/drive combination:
Front -wheel
Four-wheel

Four-wheel drive: If the vehicle is to be towed
with one of the axles raised, the ignition must be
switched off; otherwise the drive train can be
damaged.
Additional notes on towing by breakdown
truck

lifted at either the front or rear.
Notes on tow-starting
Automatic gearbox: For technical reasons, your
vehicle must not be tow-started.
Manual gearbox: As a general rule, tow-starting
is not recommended. If the engine will not start,
it is best to try starting it using the battery of an­
other vehicle ¢ page 2 77 before attempting to
tow start. If this is not possible, you can try to
push-start or tow-start the vehicle ¢ page 280,
Tow-starting. Mobility
& WARNING
There is a high risk of accidents when towing/
tow-starting, as the towed vehicle can easily
be driven into the towing vehicle.
CD CAUTION

scribed above (e.g. due to a gearbox failure
or if the vehicle has to be towed further
than SO km), it must be transported on a
special car transporter or trailer.
- Towing a vehicle with the wrong axle raised
can cause serious damage to the gearbox.
Note
- Automatic gearbox: It is not possible to
move the selector lever out of position P if
the electrical power supply fails. Before the
vehicle can be recovered/manoeuvred you
must manually release the selector lever
¢page 84.
