Reduce your speed when pulling a trailer and turn gradually. Avoid hills and
rough terrain. Never attempt steep hills. Allow more distance for braking,
especially on inclined surfaces. Be careful not to skid or slide.
Improperly loading a trailer may cause loss of control. Respect the
recommended maximum hauling capacity and maximum tongue load(Refer to
MAXMUM HAUL ING CAPACITY table).Make sure there is at least some
weight on the tongue.
Always make sure load is evenly distributed and safely secured on the trailer;
an evenly balanced trailer is easier to control.
This vehicle may require additional stopping distance if hauling heavy loads,

or slide.
When stopped or parked, block the vehicle and trailer wheels from possible
movement

When hauling a trailer, respect the maximum hauling capacity indicated on the
label on the hitch.
