and DUALOGIC™ transmission
Make sure that the gearbox is in neutral
(N) (checking that the vehicle moves
when pushed) and proceed in the
same way as for towing a normal
vehicle with a manual transmission.
If the gear lever cannot be put in
neutral, do not tow the vehicle, but
contact a Fiat Dealership.
WARNING
130) Before towing, turn the ignition key
to MAR-ON and then to STOP without
removing it. The steering column will
automatically lock when the key is
removed and the wheels cannot be
steered.
131)
Before tightening the ring, clean the
threaded housing thoroughly. Make sure
that the ring is fully fastened in the housing
before towing the vehicle. Do not start the
engine whilst the vehicle is being towed.
132) When towing, remember that greater
effort is required on the brake pedal in
order to brake, since the brake servo is
not providing assistance. Do not use
flexible cables when towing and avoid jerky
movements. During towing operations,
make sure that the fastened joint does
not damage adjoining components. When
towing the vehicle, it is necessary to obey
specific road regulations which relate both
to the towing device as well as to the
behaviour to adopt on the road. Do not
start the engine whilst the vehicle is being
towed.
IMPORTANT
45)
The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the
road. You are allowed to tow the vehicle
for short distances using an appropriate
device in accordance with the highway
code (a rigid bar), to move the vehicle
on the road in readiness for towing or
transport via a breakdown vehicle. Tow
hooks MUST NOT be used to tow vehicles
off the road or where there are obstacles
and/or for towing operations using cables
or other non-rigid devices. In compliance
with the above conditions, towing must
take place with the two vehicles (one
towing, the other towed) aligned as much
as possible along the same centre line.
