Giving and receiving assistance

194

Rear

Being towed

Make sure that the ignition is switched on,

refer to page 50; otherwise, the low-beam

headlights, tail lights, turn signals and wind-

shield wipers would not be available. If the vehi-

cle electrical system fails, do not tow-start or

tow the vehicle. The electric steering-wheel

lock cannot be unlocked and the vehicle cannot

be steered. For information on jump starting,

refer to page 192. There is no power assistance

with the engine stopped. This then requires

increased effort for braking and steering.<

Switch on the hazard warning flashers depend-

ing on the local regulations. If the electrical sys-

tem fails, mark the vehicle to be towed, e.g. with

a sign or warning triangle in the rear window.

Engage selector lever position N with the igni-

tion switched on.

Towing methods

Do not lift vehicle by tow fitting or body

and chassis parts; otherwise, damage

may result.<

In some countries, towing with tow bars or

ropes in public traffic is not permitted. Familiar-

ize yourself with the regulations on towing in the

respective country.

With tow bar

The towing vehicle may not be lighter

than the vehicle to be towed; otherwise, it

will not be possible to reliably control vehicle

response.<

The tow fittings used should be on the same

side on both vehicles. Should it prove impossi-

ble to avoid mounting the tow bar at an offset

angle, please note the following:

> Clearance and maneuvering capability will

be strictly limited during cornering.

> When mounted at an angle, the tow bar will

exert lateral forces, tending to push the

vehicle sideways.

Attach the tow bar to the tow fittings only,

as attachment to other vehicle parts can

lead to damage.<

With tow rope

When starting off in the towing vehicle, make

sure that the tow rope is taut.

To avoid jerking and the associated

stresses on vehicle components when

towing, always use nylon ropes or nylon straps.

Attach tow ropes to the tow fittings only, as

attachment to other vehicle parts can lead to

damage.<

With tow truck

Have the BMW transported with a tow truck

with a so-called lift bar or on a flat bed.

Tow-starting

Do not tow-start the vehicle if possible, but

instead start the engine by means of jump start-

ing, refer to page 192. With a catalytic con-

verter, the vehicle should only be tow-started

with the engine cold.

If the electrical system fails, do not tow-

start or tow the vehicle, as otherwise the

electric steering-wheel lock cannot be

unlocked and the vehicle cannot be steered.<
