Driving while you tow

When towing a trailer:

• To ensure proper “break-in” of powertrain components, do not trailer

tow during the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) of a new vehicle.

• To ensure proper “break-in” of powertrain components during the first

500 miles (800 km) of trailer towing, drive no faster than 70 mph

(113 km/h) with no full throttle starts.

• Turn off the speed control. The speed control may shut off

automatically when you are towing on long, steep grades.

• Consult your local motor vehicle speed regulations for towing a trailer.

• To eliminate excessive shifting, use a lower gear. This will also assist

in transmission cooling. For additional information, refer to Automatic

transmission operation in the Driving chapter.

• Anticipate stops and brake gradually.

• Do not exceed the GCWR rating or transmission damage may occur.
