TOWING: breakdown (2/2)
Only use the front 3 and rear towing
points 5 (never use the driveshafts).
These towing points may only be used
for towing: never use them for lifting the
vehicle directly or indirectly.
Access to towing points
Unclip cover 6 or 7 by sliding a flat tool
(or the key integrated in the RENAULT
card) under the cover.
Tighten towing hitch 4 fully: as much
as possible by hand at first, then finish
tightening it using the wheelbrace.
Use only towing hitch 4 and the wheel-
brace located under the luggage com-
partment carpet in the tool kit (please
refer to the information on the “Tool kit”
in Section 5).
When the engine is
stopped, steering and brak-
ing assistance are not op-
erational.
Do not leave the tools unse-
cured inside the vehicle as
they may come loose under
braking.
– Use a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed
must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, it is ad-
visable not to exceed 30 mph
(50 km/h).
