completed according to the instructions of the towing bracket manufacturer.

never be lower than the indicated value, even with a fully loaded vehicle and
including the maximum resting weight.

65 mm (minimum)
from 350 mm to 420 mm (fully loaded vehicle)
959 mm
438 mm
209 mm
Fitting a towing bracket
•
Driving with a trailer involves an extra effort for the vehicle. Therefore,
before fitting a towing bracket, please contact an Authorised Service Centre
to check whether your cooling system needs modification.
•
Submit to the legal requirements in your country (e.g. the fitting of a sepa-
rate warning lamp).
•
Certain vehicle components, e.g. the rear bumper, must be removed and
reinstalled. The towing bracket securing bolts must be tightened using a
torque wrench, and a power point must be connected to the vehicle's elec-
trical system. The above-mentioned require specialized knowledge and
tools.
•
Figures in the illustration show the elevation value and the attachment
points which must be considered if you are retrofitting a towing bracket.
WARNING
Towing brackets should be fitted by specialists.
•
If the towing bracket is incorrectly installed, there is serious danger of
accident.
•
For your own safety, please observe the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the towing bracket.
Caution
•
If the power point is incorrectly installed, this could cause damage to the
vehicle's electrical system.
Note
Due to the specific design of the exhaust, the fitting of a conventional towing
bracket is not recommended for some sports versions. Please consult your
Dealer.
