TRAILER STABILITY ASSIST
If towing devices have been factory equipped, your Grenadier’s
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system has a calibration for
towing. Trailer Stability Assist helps to control individual wheel slip
to reduce the risk of trailer sway.
ESC must be in default mode for Trailer Stability Assist to operate.
When Trailer Stability Assist is actively supporting the driver, the
telltale
lamp will blink to alert the driver.
PARKING WITH A TRAILER
Read
your trailer’s owner’s manual. Follow all of the instructions
and precautions in it.
Always use wheel chocks, in addition to the parking brake, to
reduce the risk that the trailer will roll (and take your Grenadier
with it). If parked for an extended period, disconnect the trailer's
wiring harness to avoid draining the battery.
UNHITCHING WITH THE TRAILER
Park the vehicle and trailer on level ground. Put your
Grenadier in
P (Park), set the Parking Brake, and turn
your Grenadier o.
Place wheel chocks in front of and behind at least two of
the trailer's tires, at least one on each side of the trailer.
(If you chock only one tire and only one side, the un-
chocked tires
could roll, pivoting the trailer around the
chocked tire(s)).
Disconnect the wiring harness and safety chains.
Carefully lift the trailer coupler o the hitch ball.
WARNING: Failure to follow the instructions and
precautions in
this section could result in serious injury
and death.
