Before having your vehicle towed
- To avoid triggering the alarm inadvertently, you need to reduce your vehicle's alarm sensitivity before towing it.
- You can only access tow mode if the vehicle has power. If your vehicle can't be powered on, it will need to be lifted onto the recovery vehicle's platform.
- Be sure to read all information about having your vehicle towed before you activate tow mode.
- You should not tow your vehicle further than 10 m (30 ft). Towing your vehicle longer distances can damage the vehicle by causing the battery to charge incorrectly.
- In tow mode, the towing speed of your vehicle should not exceed 5 km/h (3 mph).
To tow your vehicle, you must first activate tow mode, which involves attaching the towing eye and the winch wire. Make sure that you have all the necessary equipment ready.

- Tow your vehicle onto a recovery vehicle or to a safe place, such as the side of the road.

Forced wheel rotation during transportation can severely damage your vehicle. Make sure the vehicle is only transported by a recovery vehicle such as a flatbed, so that the vehicle's wheels do not touch the ground while being transported.
