If the cooling system does not operate at outside temperatures higher than +5°C, there is a problem in the system. This can be because of the following.
› One of the fuses has blown. Check the fuse and replace if necessary
» page 182 .
› The cooling system has switched off automatically for a short time because
the coolant temperature of the engine is too hot » page 29.
If you are not able to resolve the fault yourself, or if the cooling output has re- duced, switch off the cooling system and obtain assistance from a specialist
garage.

can go, it will go back up after the ball head is removed and will not latch into
the ready position. The ball head then needs to be brought into this position
before the next time it is fitted » page 128, Adjusting the ready position .■
Place the tow bar in the standby position, with the key upwards, and store in
the box - otherwise there is a risk of damage to the key!
■
Do not use excessive force when handling the operating lever (e.g. do not
step on it).
Note
Clean any dirt from the ball head before stowing it away in the box with the
vehicle tool kit.

Read and observe and on page 127 first.
An accessory can be mounted on the ball head of the towing device (such as a
bike carrier).
If this accessory is used, the maximum permissible protrusion of the towing
device ball head and the permissible gross vehicle weight of the accessory in-
cluding load is to be observed.
The maximum permissible protrusion for the ball head of the towing device is

The total allowable weight of the accessory including load, changes with in-
creasing distance of the centre of gravity of the load from the ball head of the
towing device.
