IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
WARNING
• Before towing, make sure that the towing hook is in good condition and that the
fixing bolts are tightened properly.
When Towed
CAUTION
• Whenever possible, tow a vehicle with the engine started.
If the engine is not started:
- The brakes will not be as effective;
- The steering wheel will be hard to turn;
- The steering wheel could lock, making it impossible to turn. This is extremely
dangerous (particularly when the key is removed).
• In models with a passive entry and start system, when the battery voltage of
the vehicle is low, the power mode may not be able to switch. It may prevent
unlocking of the steering wheel lock. If that happens, use a jumper cable (sold
separately) and the batteries of another vehicle to switch the power mode (unlock
the steering wheel lock).
• In models with passive entry and start system, when the engine start/stop
button malfunctions, the steering wheel lock will be unable to be unlocked and
towing will not be possible.
[Request a tow vehicle in case of one of the following conditions]
• When the vehicle will descend long hills. (The brakes could overheat and
become ineffective.)
• When the vehicle breaks down on a highway.
