Towing bracket
A towing bracket means that it is possible to
e.g. tow a trailer behind the car.
If the car is equipped with a detachable tow-
bar, the installation instructions for the loose
section must be followed carefully, see
Detachable towbar - attachment/removal (p.
304).
WARNING
If the car is fitted with a Volvo detachable
towbar:
•
Follow the installation instructions
carefully.
•
The detachable section must be
locked with the key before setting off.
•
Check that the indicator window
shows green.
Important checks
•
The towbar's towball must be cleaned
and greased regularly.
WARNING
The moving parts of the detachable towbar
must not be lubricated/oiled. This may
reduce safety.
NOTE
When a hitch with a vibration damper is
used, the towball must not be lubricated.
