technician.
● Disconnect the air compressor. Unscrew
the tyre inflator tube from the tyre valve.
● When the tyre pressure is between 2.5 and
2.0 bars, continue driving without exceeding

The towline anchorages are located under
the floor panel in the luggage compartment. Switch on the ignition so that the turn sig-
nals, windscreen wipers and windscreen

lower risk of damage.
The tow rope is recommended when there is
no tow bar. It must be elastic so that it does
not damage the vehicle.

rages.
It is located with the vehicle's tools
