Clearance and maneuvering capability
will be strictly limited in corners

When mounted at an angle, the towbar
will exert lateral forces, tending to push the
vehicle sideways.
Never use a vehicle to tow another
vehicle that is heavier than itself, as
this could lead to a loss of control.
<
Towing
Do not tow the vehicle by the rear
axle; because the steering detent is
not operational, the wheels could turn to an
extreme angle during towing.
<
1. Switch on the ignition to allow operation
of the brake lamps, turn signal indicators,
horn, parking brake and windshield wipers
2. Turn on the hazard warning flashers
where allowed by law
3. Manual release of the transmission
lockout, refer to page 70
4. Maximum towing speed:
maximum 43 mph (70 km/h)
5. Maximum towing distance:
maximum 93 miles (150 km).
If the electrical system in the towed vehicle
has failed, use an alternate means to iden-
tify the vehicle as being towed such as a
sign or warning triangle placed in the rear
window.
The steering and brakes are without
power assistance when the engine is
off. This means that higher levels of effort
will be required to operate the steering and
brakes.
<
Tow-starting
It is not possible to start the engine by tow-
starting the vehicle.
Jump starting, refer to page
187 .
Have the source of the starting difficulties
diagnosed and repaired at your BMW
center.
