Manual Description
If the vehicle is towed with the front or rear axles lifted off the ground, the engine must be switched off. In case of a power loss or malfunctions of the electrical system, the engine may have to be jump-started in order to release the electronic steering column lock. Inexperienced drivers should not try to tow a vehicle or to drive a vehicle that is being towed.
When towing on an unpaved road, there is always a risk of overloading and damaging the attachment points. If your vehicle is being towed, it can still signal turns even if the emergency flashers are activated, as long as the ignition is switched on. As soon as the turn signal lever returns to its neutral position, the emergency flashers are automatically activated again.
As the driver of the vehicle being towed: If your vehicle is the one being towed, the ignition switch must be switched on to keep the steering wheel from locking. Also make sure that the turn signals, horn, windshield wipers, and windshield washers work properly. As the driver of the towing vehicle: Drive especially carefully and accelerate gently.
