Towing eye
Use the towing eye if the car shall tow another vehicle. The towing eye is screwed into a threaded socket behind a cover on the right-hand side of the rear bumper.
Note
If the car is equipped with a towing bracket, there is no mounting for a towing eye.

Remove the cover - press on the marking with a finger and, at the same time, fold out the opposite side/corner using a coin or similar.
The cover pivots around its centre line and can then be removed.
Screw the towing eye right in until it stops. Tighten the towing eye firmly e.g. using the wheel wrench.
After use, unscrew the towing eye and return it to its place.
Finish by refitting the cover onto the bumper.
Important
It is important that the towing eye is firmly screwed into place - right in until it stops.
