Towing the vehicle

In general, vehicles with the AW55 transaxle can be towed. Vehicles must never be towed backwards.

As a result of the reduced lubrication of the transaxle during towing, the following must be remembered:

• The selector lever must be in the 'N' position.
• The maximum towing speed must not exceed 50 km/h.
• The maximum towing distance must not exceed 50 kilometers.
