If you decide to pull a trailer?
Here are some important points if you
decide to pull a trailer:
• Consider using a sway control. You
can ask a trailer towbar dealer about
sway control.
• Do not do any towing with your
vehicle during its first 1,200 miles in
order to allow the engine to properly
break in. Failure to heed this caution
may result in serious engine or
transmission damage.
• When towing a trailer, be sure
to consult an authorised retailer
of Genesis Branded products for
further information on additional
requirements such as a towing kit, etc.
• Always drive your vehicle at a
moderate speed 60 mph or posted
towing speed limit.
• On a long uphill grade, do not exceed
45 mph the posted towing speed limit,
whichever is lower.
• Carefully observe the weight and load
limits provided in the following pages.

What is the maximum safe weight of a
trailer? It should never weigh more than
the maximum trailer weight with trailer
brakes. But even that can be too heavy.
It depends on how you plan to use your
trailer. For example, speed, altitude,
road grades, outside temperature and
how often your vehicle is used to pull a
trailer are all important. The ideal trailer
weight can also depend on any special
equipment that you have on your vehicle.
