bars.
Parktronic does not detect such ob-
jects in the immediate vicinity. You
could damage the vehicle or objects.

compressed-air brakes, an auto-
matic car wash or a pneumatic drill

load-bearing implements or trailer
couplings

Having the vehicle carried away on a trans-
porter or trailer is preferable to towing it
away. We recommend the use of a rigid
towing bar if towing is necessary.The fixture for the front towing eye is locat-
ed behind the cover in the bumper on the
right-hand side when viewed in the direc-
tion of travel.

tion of the arrow and remove it.
You will see the fixture for the towing
eye.

wrench from the vehicle tool kit
(\2page 300).
\1Screw in the towing eye clockwise to
the stop.
\1Insert the wheel wrench handle into the
towing eye and tighten.

\1Remove the wheel wrench from the ve-
hicle tool kit.
\1Insert the wheel wrench handle into the
towing eye and turn the wrench coun-
terclockwise.
\1Unscrew the towing eye.
\1Insert bottom of cover 1 using the lug

es.Warning
G
Tow the vehicle using a rigid towing bar if:
\4the engine is not running,
\4there is a malfunction in the power sup-
ply or the vehicle’s electrical system.
There is no power assistance for the steer-
ing and braking when the engine is not run-
ning. You must then use significantly greater
force to steer the vehicle and brake.
Do not tow the vehicle if the key cannot
be turned in the ignition lock. The steering
is then locked and it will not be possible to
steer the vehicle.
When towing another vehicle, its weight
should not be greater than the permissible
gross weight of your vehicle.
