TIPS AND MAINTENANCE
General n
notes
•
Check whether there are any local traffic
regulations concerning the towing of vehi-
cles.
•
The tow-rope should be slightly elastic
to reduce the risk of damage to both vehi-
cles. It is advisable to use synthetic fibre
ropes, or ropes of similar elasticmaterial.
It is however safer to use a towing bar!
Avoid excessive towing effort and do not
jerk. During towing operations on other
than surfaced roads there is always the
danger that the attachment points will be
overloaded and damaged.
•
Before ttrying tto ttow s
start, a
an a
attempt
should b
be m
made tto s
start u
using tthe
battery o

another v

•
When using a tow-rope the driver of the
towing vehicle must engage the clutch
very gently when moving off and changing
gear.
•
The driver of the vehicle being towed
must ensure that the tow-rope is always
taut.
•
The emergency lights must be switched
on in both vehicles – unless local regula-
tions differ.
•
Turn ignition on so that the steering
wheel is free and the turn signals, horn,
and, if necessary, the windscreen wiper
and washer can be used.
•
As the brake servo only works when the
engine is running, considerably more
pressure is required on the brake pedal
when the engine is not running.
•
More force than usual will be required
to turn the steering wheel as the power
assisted steering does not work when
engine is not running.
•
When there is no lubricant in the man-
ual or automaticgearbox, the vehicle may
only be towed with driving wheels lifted.
A tow-rope or a towing bar must only be
applied at the following points:
