• Allow more room for stopping
with a trailer attached.
• Practice turning, stopping and
backing in an area before
starting on a trip to get the feel
of the vehicle/trailer
combination.
• When turning, drive slightly
beyond the normal turning point
so the trailer wheels will clear
curbs and other obstacles.
• When stopped in traffic for long
periods of time in hot weather,
place the automatic transmission
gearshift in P (Park) to increase
idle speed. This aids engine
cooling and air conditioner
efficiency.
• Vehicles with trailers should not
be parked on a grade. If you
must park on a grade, place
wheel chocks under the trailer’s
wheels.
• After you have travelled about
80 km (50 miles), thoroughly
check your hitch, electrical
connections and trailer wheel
lug nuts.
Launching or retrieving a boat
When backing down a ramp during
boat launching or retrieval,
• Do not allow the static water
level to rise above the bottom
edge of the rear bumper and
• Do not allow waves to break
higher than 15 cm (six inches)
above the bottom edge of the
rear bumper.
