About towing
This section offers information on towing
methods for breakdown situations and
emergency towing. Recommended towing method - Break-
down situation
! To prevent damage during transport, do
not tie down the vehicle by its chassis or suspension parts — use only wheel straps to position and hold down the vehicle.
Improper tie down on a flatbed carrier
truck or trailer can damage suspension
parts and body panels.
smart recommends that the vehicle be
transported with all wheels off the ground
using a flatbed carrier truck or appropri- ate wheel lift/dolly equipment.
Always have your vehicle transported:
R when the Nwarning lamp for the high-
voltage system lights up in the instru-
ment cluster

D Power steering
R if the brake pedal already starts to pul-
sate just after towing begins

long distances
X Switch off the tow‑away protection* and
interior motion sensor* (Y page 50). Emergency towing

ommended towing method, the vehicle may
be towed with all wheels on the ground
using a strap or tow bar connected to
another vehicle. Only tow the vehicle as far as necessary to have the vehicle moved to a
safe location where the recommended tow-
ing method can be employed. G
