Starting and driving
Towing and recovery
Do not bump start the engine
If you bump start a car with manual gearbox,
the catalytic converter may be damaged.
Cars with automatic gearbox cannot be bump
started. Use a booster battery if the battery is
flat.
If the car must be towed
Unlock the steering wheel lock so that the
car can be steered.
Keep in mind the highest legally permis-
sible speed.
Bear in mind that the brake and power
steering servos do not function when the
engine is off. Approx. five times more
pressure must be exerted on the brake
pedal and steering requires much more
force than usual.
Drive gently. Keep the towline taut to
avoid unnecessary jerking.
For automatic gearboxes
The gear selector should be in position N.
The maximum permissible speed when
towing a car with automatic gearbox is
80 km/h.
Only tow with the car facing forward.
The engine cannot be bump started.
"Jump starting", see page 129.
