Practical hints Towing the vehicle Warning! G i When towing the vehicle with all wheels on the ground, note the following: With the automatic central locking activated and the SmartKey in starter switch position 2, the vehicle doors lock if a wheel is turning at vehicle speeds of approximately 9 mph (15 km/h) or above. To prevent the vehicle doors from locking, deactivate the automatic central locking ( page 155). i The gear selector lever will remain locked in park position P and the SmartKey will not turn in the starter switch if the battery is disconnected or discharged. For more information, see "Battery" ( page 396) and "Jump starting" ( page 399). For information on manually unlocking the gear selector lever, see ( page 373). With the engine not running, there is no power assistance for the brake and steering systems. In this case, it is important to keep in mind that a considerably higher degree of effort is necessary to brake and steer the vehicle. Adapt your driving accordingly. ! Towing of the vehicle should only be done using the towing eye. Never attach tow cable, tow rope or tow rod to vehicle chassis, frame or suspension parts. i To signal turns while being towed with hazard warning flasher in use, turn the SmartKey in starter switch to position 2 and activate combination switch for left or right turn signal in usual manner - only the selected turn signal will operate. Upon canceling the turn signal, the hazard warning flasher will operate again. 402
