Safety chains

Always connect the trailer’s safety chains to the hook retainers on the

hitch. To connect the trailer’s safety chains, cross the chains under the

trailer tongue and allow slack for turning corners.

If you use a rental trailer, follow the instructions that the rental agency

gives to you.

Do not attach safety chains to the bumper.

Trailer brakes

Be sure your trailer conforms to all applicable local and Federal

Regulations regarding trailer braking. If your trailer is equipped with

electronically controlled brakes you will need to have an electronic brake

controller with associated wiring installed to your vehicle by an

authorized dealer.

Do not connect a trailer’s hydraulic brake system directly to your

vehicle’s brake system. Your vehicle may not have enough

braking power and your chances of having a collision greatly increase.

The braking system of the tow vehicle is rated for operation at the

GVWR not GCWR.

Trailer lamps

Trailer lamps are required on most towed vehicles. Make sure all running

lights, brake lights, turn signals and hazard lights are working.

Do not splice into the vehicle lamp wiring for trailer lamps. Your

vehicle uses an advanced electronic module to control and

monitor your vehicle lamps. Splicing into the wiring or attaching

wiring to the vehicle bulb. may DISABLE the rear vehicle lamps

or cause them not to function properly. Your lamp outage feature

may also be disabled or provide incorrect information.

See your authorized dealer or trailer rental agency for proper

instructions and equipment for hooking up trailer lamps.
