5.1 Hitching up the trailer
If you want to drive with the trailer, the trailer must be connected to your ve-
hicle.
Proceed as follows:
1. Place the tow bar of the trailer onto the ball of the hitch on your vehi-
cle.
2. Check whether the trailer is more or less horizontal. If it is not, the
hitch will not be at the required height (heart cone between 38 and 42
cm from the ground) and your car will not be able to tow the trailer.
3. If the hitch on the car is at the required height, push the safety lock
( Illustration 5.1.1 B ) downwards.
4. Pull the safety break handle ( Illustration 5.1.1 D ) up.
5. Check whether the pin ( Illustration 5.1.1 A ) for the safety lock is in be-
tween the marks.
6. Attach the safety cable to the eye ( Illustration 5.1.1 F ) which has been
specially installed for this purpose. This cable should not be pulled
tightly or become caught in any part.
7. Put the plug ( Illustration 5.1.1 E ) for the trailer into the socket on the
car. Check whether the rear lights function properly.
8. Raise the support completely ( Illustration 5.1.1 C ). Now the tow bar of
the trailer rests on the ball and hitch on the car.
