TOWING THE VEHICLE

Procedure for having your vehicle
towed or for towing another vehicle us-
ing a removable towing eye.
The towing eye is installed in the boot
under the fl oor.
To gain access to it:



open the boot,


raise the fl oor,


secure it by hooking its cord on the
hook on the rear parcel shelf sup-
port,


remove the towing eye from the
holder.



Access to the tools
General recommendations

Observe the legislation in force in your country.
Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is higher than that of the towed
vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of the towed vehicle and must have a
valid driving licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, always use an
approved towing bar; rope and straps are prohibited.
When towing a vehicle with the engine off, there is no longer any power
assistance for braking or steering.
In the following cases, you must always call on a professional recovery
service:


- vehicle broken down on a motorway or fast road,

- 4 wheel drive vehicle,

- when it is not possible to put the gearbox into neutral, unlock the steering,
or release the parking brake,

- towing with only two wheels on the ground,

- where there is no approved towing bar available...
