Switch on the hazard warning flashers, depend-
ing on local regulations. If the car's electrical
system has failed, the car to be towed must be
made identifiable to following vehicles, for
instance by placing a notice or the warning tri-
angle in the rear window.
Before starting to tow, engage transmission
position N and release the parking brake.
If transmission position N cannot be engaged,
release the transmission interlock manually,
see page
.
Do not exceed a towing speed of
70 km/h, approx. 45 mph, and a towing
distance of 150 km, approx. 90 miles, otherwise
the automatic transmission could sustain dam-
age.
<
Towing methods
Do not raise the car at the towing eye or
by body or suspension components, oth-
erwise it could sustain damage.
<
In some countries, it is prohibited to tow
another vehicle on public roads by means of a
towbar or towrope. Familiarise yourself with the
relevant legislation in the country in question.
With towbar
The towing vehicle must not be lighter
than the towed vehicle, otherwise it may
be impossible to maintain control.
<
The towing eyes of both vehicles should be on
the same side. If it is impossible to avoid attach-
ing the towbar at an angle, note the following:
>
Towbar clearance may be restricted when
cornering.
>
The towbar will generate lateral forces if it is
attached offset.
Only attach the towbar to the towing
eyes. Attaching the towbar to other parts
of the car can result in damage.
<
With towrope
Ensure that the towrope is taut when the towing
vehicle moves off.
For towing, use nylon ropes or tapes, as
these will help to avoid sudden tensile
loads. Only attach the towrope to the towing
eyes. Attaching the towrope to other parts of
the car can result in damage.
<
With breakdown truck
Do not tow away the X5 with just the front
or rear axle raised off the ground, other-
wise the wheels could lock and the transfer box
be damaged.
<
Always have the X5 hoisted onto a loading plat-
form for transporting.
Tow-starting
The engine cannot be started by tow-starting.
Jump-start the engine, see page
.
Have the cause of the starting difficulties recti-
fied.
