light VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2013 1B / 6.G Manual Online

As the driver of the vehicle being towed:
x If your vehicle is the one being towed, the ignition switch must be switched on to keep the steering
wheel from locking. Also make sure that the turn signals, horn, windshield wipers, and windshield
washers work properly.
x Since power steering does not work when the engine is switched off, more effort is needed to steer
the vehicle.
x Since the brake booster also does not work when the engine is stopped, you will need to press
harder on the brake pedal to slow down or stop. Do not hit the towing vehicle.
x Read and heed the information and WARNINGS in the towing vehicle's owners manual.
As the driver of the towing vehicle:
x Drive especially carefully and accelerate gently. Avoid sudden driving maneuvers.
