WARNINGS
Keep your hands away from the
handwheel as it rotates during the
locking process.
You will hear a warning tone when
the tow ball arm is not in one of the
locked positions. If you do not hear
the tone when moving the tow ball arm,
do not use the tow bar and have it checked
by a properly trained technician.
CAUTION
Before retracting the ball neck into its
stowage position always unhitch the
trailer or dismantle load carriers and
their attachments. Dismantle attachments
for tracking stabilization. Remove the plug
for the trailer power supply and the
adapter from the socket. Failure to do so
may result in damage to the bumper.
1. Insert the key into the handwheel and
turn it clockwise to unlock.
2. Pull the handwheel out and turn it
counterclockwise to the stop. The tow
ball arm automatically swivels into a
midway position.
3. Release the handwheel. The tow ball
arm is not locked. This is indicated by
the warning tone and the handwheel
projects about five millimeters (0.2
inch) from its housing.
