If it is impossible to avoid attaching the 
towbar at an angle, note the following:
> Towbar clearance may be restricted 

when cornering

> The angled towbar generates lateral 

forces.

Secure the towbar only to the 
towing eyes. Attempts to secure it 

to other parts of the vehicles could 
result in damage.

<

Make sure that the tow-rope is taut 
before the towing vehicle drives off.

For towing, use either a nylon 
rope or tape: they are resilient and 

help to avoid sudden tensile loads. 
Secure the tow-rope only to the towing 
eyes. Attempts to secure it to other 
parts of the vehicles could result in 
damage.

<

Have the BMW transported on the 
recovery vehicle's load platform, or with 
its front wheels clear of the ground and 
resting securely on a purpose-designed 
carrier.

Do not attempt to lift the vehicle 
by the towing eye or by parts of 

the body or chassis, as damage could 
result.

<

Do not tow the BMW with only the front 
or the rear wheels clear of the ground, 
as the wheels can lock and this would 
result in damage to the transmission's 
transfer box.

Have the BMW transported on the 
recovery vehicle's load platform.

Do not attempt to tow-start a car 
with automatic transmission. For 

starting with a flat battery, see
