Otherwise, it is necessary to have your vehicle transported on a recovery truck.
It is essential to check that the electric parking brake is released.
Requirement — Towing with automatic gearbox
Place the selector on position N (neutral).
When the engine is not running, the steering and the braking are no longer
assisted.
If you are towing another vehicle, the latter must be freewheeling (gearbox in neutral).
Towing with either the front or the rear of the vehicle raised, or in “minimum height”
position, is forbidden.
