Consequently, the following instructions must be respected in order to avoid serious damage: - Never move the vehicle with the ignition off (when going down a slope for example), the danger of such a measure cannot be emphasised too greatly. - Never have the vehicle pushed (for example in order to reach the next service station), unless precautions taken in the "Towing" are fol- lowed). In addition, the vehicle can only be driven if the engine is running. It is therefore impossible to start the engine on a vehicle with automatic trans- mission by pushing the vehicle. TOWING The front of the vehicle must be raised, however if this is impossible towing can be carried out in ex- ceptional cases with the wheels on the ground in the following conditions: 1 - Add an additional 2 litres of oil to the auto- matic transmission ("Elf Renaultmatic D2" or Mobil ATF 220). 2 - When towing, do not exceed a speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) or a distance of 30 miles (50 km) maximum (lever in N). Remember to drain off the excess oil at the end of the towing operation. 23-3 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION Identification 23 The identification plate indicates: - at A : the type of automatic transmission, - at B : the type suffix, - at C : the fabrication number, - at D : the manufacturing factory.
