VEHICLE TOWING AND LIFTING POINTS

Towing points

The vehicle has two threaded sockets, one at the front and one at the rear, for fitting the tow hook which is housed i nthe tool box in the luggage compartment under the carpet.

When towing the vehicle, the laws governing towing and road traffic must be obeyed.

Before towing, make sure that the two hook is fully tightened.

Thoroughly clean the threaded housing before tightening the tow hook.

Turn the ignition key to the ON position and then to the OFF position and DO NOT EXTRACT IT !

When the key is extracted, the steering lock is immediately engaged and it is consequently impossible to steer the wheels.

Whilst towing, as the brake servo and the power assisted steering are not working, greater force will have to be exerted on the brake pedal and the steering wheel.

Do not use flexible cables for towing and avoid jerking.

Vehicle lifting points

To lift the vehicle using a ramp or hoist, place the ends of the arms or hoist only in the areas shown in the figure.

After having raised the vehicle, support it using safety stands.

Before lifting the rear (front) of the vehicle, lock the wheels using chocks in front of (behind) the front (rear) wheels.
