TOW RING HOOKING fig. 39
Proceed as follows:
❒
release the cap
A
;
❒
take the tow hook
B
from the sup-
port;
❒
tighten the ring on the rear or front
threaded pin.
When towing, remember that
without the help of the ser-
vobrake and power steering, a greater
effort is required on the pedal and
steering wheel. Do not use flexible ca-
bles for towing and avoid jerks. During
towing operations make sure that fas-
tening the joint to the car does not
damage the components in contact
with it. When towing the car, you must
comply with the specific traffic regu-
lations regarding the tow ring and how
to tow on the road.
