Before starting towing oper-
ations, turn the ignition key
to MAR and then to STOP, without
extracting it. If the key is extracted,
the steering wheel lock will be auto-
matically activated, thus preventing
steering.
WARNING
During towing operations the
brake booster is not engaged.
Therefore, a heavier effort must be
made on the pedal. Do not use wires for
towing. Do not jerk. During towing op-
erations make sure not to damage parts
in contact with the vehicle. When tow-
ing the vehicle comply with the specific
rules of the Highway Code regarding the
towing device and the behaviour to
maintain on the road. Do not start the
engine while towing the vehicle.
WARNING

fully before fastening the ring.

in the seat before towing the vehicle.
WARNING
Do not start the engine
when towing the vehicle.
WARNING
The front and rear tow hooks
must only be used for emer-
gency situations on the road.
The vehicle may be towed for
short distances when a dedicated de-
vice is used in compliance with the
Highway Code (rigid bar), in order to
move the vehicle on the road in prepa-
ration for towing by a tow truck Tow
hooks MUST NOT be used to tow ve-
hicles off the road or where there are
obstacles and/or for towing operations
using cables or other non-rigid devices.
Respecting the above conditions, tow-
ing must only take place with two ve-
hicles (one towing, the other towed)
travelling as far as possible in alignment
along the same centreline.
