Important
Towing the car is not permitted as the electric motor may be damaged. Instead, the car must be transported raised with all the wheels on a recovery vehicle's platform. Neither of the wheel pairs may have contact with the road.
When towing another car
Towing a car requires a lot of energy - use the Constant AWD drive mode. The hybrid battery is then charged and the car's driving and road characteristics are improved.
Find out the statutory maximum speed limit for towing before the towing begins.
Jump starting
Tow-starting the motor is not permitted as this will damage the electric motor. Use a donor battery if the starter battery is discharged and the engine does not start.
Important
The electric drive motor and the catalytic converter may be damaged during attempts to tow-start the car.
