Trailer towing
E00610001935
In order to tow a trailer with your vehicle,
when having a trailer towing device mounted
that meets all relevant regulations in your
area, consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.
Check that your towing bar coupling ball
does not obscure your vehicle’s licence plate
when the trailer or caravan is disconnected. If
it obscures the licence plate, please remove
the towing bar coupling ball. And if the tow-
ing bar coupling ball is lockable by using a
key or any kind of tools, please remove the
coupling ball and use a towing bar coupling
ball which can be removed or repositioned
without the use of a key or any kind of tools
instead.
The regulations concerning the towing of a
trailer may differ from country to country.
You are advised to obey the regulations in
each area.
CAUTION
l
Danger of Accident!
A towing bar should be fitted according to
MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines.
Maximum towable weight with
brake and maximum trailer-
nose weight
Never exceed the maximum towable weight
with brake and the maximum trailer-nose
weight as listed in the specifications.
(Refer to page “Vehicle weight” on page
11-05.)
If you tow a trailer at an altitude of more than
1,000 m above sea-level, reduce your weight
by 10 % of the gross combination weight for
every increase of 1,000 m above sea-level, as
the engine output is lowered owing to de-
crease in atmospheric pressure.

cations
