TRAILER TOWING

Trailer towing puts additional loads

on your vehicle’s engine,

transmission, axle, brakes, tires, and

suspension. For your safety and to

maximize vehicle performance, be

sure to use the proper equipment

while towing.

Follow these guidelines to ensure

safe towing procedure:

• Stay within your vehicle’s load limits. If exceeded, cargo should be

removed from the trailer and/or the vehicle until all weights are within

specified limits.

• Thoroughly prepare your vehicle for towing. Refer to Preparing to

tow in this chapter.

• Use extra caution when driving while trailer towing. Refer to Driving

while you tow in this chapter.

• Service your vehicle more frequently if you tow a trailer. Refer to the

severe duty schedule in the scheduled maintenance guide.

• Do not tow a trailer until your vehicle has been driven at least 800 km

(500 miles).

• Refer to the instructions included with towing accessories for the

proper installation and adjustment specifications.

Trailer towing (standard equipment):

Your vehicle is equipped with a integrated trailer hitch and a Class I

(4-pin) trailer electrical connector. The 4-pin connector supplies power

to tail lamps, stop lamps, and turn lamps. See the trailer towing chart for

the trailer towing weight recommendation.
