Having your vehicle towed


BEING TOWED


The removable towing eye is located in the
tool kit behind the driver's seat (Light van) or
behind the rear bench seat (Combi).


From the front

In the front bumper, unclip the cover on the
right using a flat tool.
Screw the removable towing eye in fully.
Then hook the towbar on the towing eye.
Unlock the steering by turning the the
ignition key one notch and release the
parking brake.
Switch on the hazard warning lamps on both
vehicles.
Move off gently and drive slowly, towing for
a short distance only.
On the towed vehicle, the gear
lever must be put in neutral; failure
to observe this special condition
may result in damage to certain braking
components (brakes, transmission...) and
the absence of braking assistance when the
engine is started.


From the rear

In the rear bumper, unclip the cover at the
bottom using a flat tool.
Screw the removable towing eye in fully.
Then hook the towbar on the towing eye.
Switch on the hazard warning lamps on both
vehicles.
Move off gently and drive slowly, towing for
a short distance only.


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 stay at the wheel of the
towed vehicle.
Driving on motorways and fast roads is
prohibited when towing.
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,

- 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...
