The rear towing eye is located right under the buffer.

Gearbox set to neutral on vehicles with automatic transmission, set the control lever to its position "N".

Turn on the hazard light and alarm at pulling and towed vehicle.

Since the brake servo and power steering units operate only when the engine is running, the vehicle must be stopped, respectively, to press hard on the brake pedal and steering wheel!

We recommend using a towing bar for rigid coupling, as there is a high risk of collision when using a flexible towing cable. This rope must be elastic to save from a collision between a drawing and towed vehicles. Only use ropes made of artificial fibers or wires with elastic intermediate.
