GENERAL 15 GENERAL TOWING THE VEHICLE Towing Guidelines: If towing the vehicle is necessary the best method of towing is by a flatbed tow vehicle. If a flatbed tow vehicle is not available, use a dolly or a rigid tow bar. Follow the additional points listed below: 1. Make sure the tow vehicle capacity is rated sufficiently 2. Always use the hazard indicators when towing a vehicle. 3. Avoid using a flexible cable or rope to tow the vehicle, particularly when the engine cannot provide power steering or brake assistance. 4. Where possible, keep the engine idling so that power steering assistance and brake vaccum are available. 5. Limit the speed to 20-30 kmph. 6. In case of brake failure, use the parking brake to control the car. 7. TATA MOTORS has not rated Nano to tow other vehicles or trailers. Do not use Nano for towing purposes. Recovery Points CAUTION The recovery / tow hook included in the vehicle tool kit is for recovery and low-speed towing only. Do not use the hook for long distance towing. Loss of control and/or vehicle damage may occur if the hook is used outside these guidelines. Recovery points are located in the front and rear bumpers of the vehicle. The vehicle tool kit contains a recovery/tow hook that threads into the recovery point at the front and rear bumpers. To access the rear recovery point, pry the cover out of the bumper and thread the hook into the hole at the recovery point. • Use the hook to free the vehicle from mud, snow, or to pull the vehicle onto a wrecker. • Always remove the hook and return to the vehicle tool kit when not in use. Transporting the vehicle : The towing eyes can be used to pull the vehicle onto a trailer or transporter for transporting purposes. To secure, only lash the vehicle down by the wheels or tyres. Your vehicle could otherwise be damaged.
