General information:

The vehicle manufacturer's specifications regarding trailer load and nose weight are decisive for
driving, and the values specified for the towing hitch must not be exceeded.
The towing hitch serves for towing trailers fitted with ball couplings and for use with load carriers approved
for attachment to the towing hitch. Any use other than that specified is prohibited. Driving with a trailer must
be adapted to the road conditions. The vehicle's handling is affected when a trailer is being towed. Follow
the vehicle manufacturer's instructions.
If vehicles are fitted with a Parking Distance Control (PDC) system malfunctioning of the system
can occur after tow bar installation since the parts (ball bar, ball coupling) could be located in the
detection area of the sensors. In this case, the detection area should be readjusted or the PDC
deactivated. Malfunctioning is not expected when using tow bars with detachable or pivoted ball bars if
the ball bar is removed from its operating position.
The fixing points specified as standard must be observed.
National guidelines concerning official approval of auxiliaries must be observed.
These installation and operating instructions must be enclosed with the vehicle papers.

Installation instructions:

The towing hitch is a safety component and must only be installed by qualified personnel.
Any alteration or conversion to the towing hitch is prohibited, and would lead to cancellation of design
certification.
Remove insulating compound and underseal from vehicle (if present) in the area of the mating
surfaces of the towing hitch. Seal any bare bodywork and bores with anti-corrosive paint.
Operating instructions:
Again tighten all securing bolts of the towing hitch after approx. 1000 trailer km, observing specified
tightening torques.
The towing hitch must be kept clean and greased. However, if a stabilisation device, e.g. Westfalia
"SSK", is used, the towing hitch must be free from grease. Follow the instructions in the relevant
operating instructions.
As soon as the towing hitch diameter is 49.0 mm or less at any point, it must no longer be used for
safety reasons.
After the towing hitch is fitted, the empty weight of the vehicle increases by 19 kg.
