Recovery Anchorage Point
A recovery anchorage mounting point is
located behind the upper right hand corner
of the center bumper grille.
The mounting point is provided to aid
vehicle recovery, such as winching onto a
flatbed car transporter, but only when the
car is able to roll freely.
WARNING
Use only towing equipment designed
specifically for this purpose.
Ensure that the key is used to unlock the
steering column and is then left in the
lock. Never withdraw the key until the
car is stationary. The steering column will
lock when the key is withdrawn.
Only in an emergency should the car be
towed using this anchorage mounting
and then only for the shortest distance
necessary.
Recovery Eye
A recovery eye is provided with the vehicle
tool kit, located in the rear luggage
compartment.
Recovery Eye Fitment
Remove the protective bung, pass the
recovery eye through the grille aperture and
then screw the recovery eye fully counter-
clockwise into the anchorage point.
Winching Automatic Models
- Ensure that the vehicle’s battery is
connected and has sufficient charge.
- Turn the ignition key to position II so
that the PRND selector buttons can be
activated.
- Release the parking brake and ensure
that the transmission is in N - Neutral.
- If Neutral cannot be selected then towing
dollies must be placed under the rear
wheels before winching the vehicle.
Vehicle Recovery
If recovery is necessary, we recommend
it is carried out by your Lotus dealer or a
professional vehicle recovery service.
The recommended method of recovery
for any model is the use of a flat bed
transporter as shown in illustration A.
Never use the recovery eye to tow the
vehicle.
To prevent causing serious damage to
the transmission; always tow the vehicle
with the free wheels (non-driving wheels)
rotating on the ground, see illustration B.
Car Tie-Down
When moving a car by transporter or trailer,
the car should be secured only by chocking
and strapping around the road wheels.
