TOWING A TRAILER
WARNING: Do not exceed
the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification
label.
WARNING: Towing trailers
beyond the maximum
recommended gross trailer
weight exceeds the limit of your
vehicle and could result in engine
damage, transmission damage,
structural damage, loss of
vehicle control, vehicle rollover
and personal injury.
WARNING: Do not exceed
the lowest rating capacity for
your vehicle or trailer hitch.
Overloading your vehicle or
trailer hitch can impair your
vehicle stability and handling.
Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control
of your vehicle, personal injury or
death.
WARNING: Do not cut, drill,
weld or modify the trailer hitch.
Modifying the trailer hitch could
reduce the hitch rating.
WARNING: Do not exceed
the maximum vertical load on
the tow ball. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.
WARNING: Do not tow a
trailer fitted with electric trailer
brakes unless your vehicle is
fitted with a compatible
aftermarket electronic trailer
brake controller. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death.
For additional information and
assistance, we recommend that
you contact an authorized
dealer.
Note: Your vehicle includes trailer
stability control if it has an
electronic stability program (ESP).
When towing a trailer:
Obey country specific
regulations for towing a trailer.
Do not exceed 62 mph
(100 km/h) even if a country
allows higher speeds under
certain conditions.
Place loads as low as possible
and central to the axle of your
trailer. For best stability of the
trailer in an unladen vehicle,
place the load in the trailer
towards the nose within the
maximum nose load as this
gives the best stability. See
Recommended Towing
Weights (page 220).
