Where is the towing hook of Bora?

The towing hook of Bora is usually located in the trunk of the car or in the vehicle tool kit. Here is some information about the towing hook: Towing hook, also known as tow ball, is a traction device connected to the rear bumper beam of the vehicle, mainly installed on ordinary household vehicles and self-propelled RVs. The function of the towing hook is to install it for towing small trailers and towed RVs. Of course, it can also be used to install some rear bicycle racks, luggage racks, etc., increasing the vehicle's cargo space. How to use the towing hook: Find the towing hook position at the rear of the towing vehicle and the front of the towed vehicle. The towing hook position is designed at the lower part of the bumper. By observing the front and rear bumpers, you can find a hidden space covered with a round or square cover, which is the location of the car's towing hook. Install the towing tool. Whether you choose a soft or hard towing tool, ensure that the connection to the car hook is secure and reliable during installation. If the tow hook is designed with a safety lock, make sure it is locked in place. Precautions for using the towing hook are as follows: Pay attention to making wide turns when turning. Because when the towed vehicle is hooked up, it is equivalent to the extension of the vehicle body and the corresponding increase in the turning radius. To avoid accidents such as scraping pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles, it is recommended to make wide turns in this situation. Pay attention to the tire pressure of small trailers. When passing speed bumps with a trailer, if the tire pressure of the trailer is maintained at the normal 2.5bar, it is likely to bounce, causing the trailer to separate from the towing hook, which is very dangerous. The reason is that many small trailers have rubber torsion axles as their suspension system, so their shock absorption effect is not ideal. It is recommended to reduce the tire pressure of small trailers to about 1.3bar, so that the tires can also play a role in shock absorption. When reversing, it is recommended to first remove the trailer or RV behind the car from the towing hook. Because reversing while towing will cause the trailer or RV to swing randomly, making it difficult to park the vehicle in the parking space. Also, when a vehicle equipped with a towing hook reverses into a parking space, if there are obstacles or other vehicles behind the parking space, more empty space needs to be left than for ordinary vehicles. Otherwise, the towing hook is likely to hit the obstacles or vehicles behind. Similarly, pay attention to the rear situation when parking horizontally.
