Towing a Trailer
A’
CAUTION:
If you don’t use the correct equipment and drive
properly, you can lose control when you pull
a
trailer. For example, if the trailer is too heavy,
the brakes may not work well
--
or even
at
all.
You and your passengers could be seriously
injured. You may also damage your vehicle; the
resulting repairs would not be covered by your
warranty. Pull a trailer only if you have followed
all the steps in this section.
Ask
your retailer for
advice and information about towing a trailer
with your vehicle.
Your vehicle can tow a trailer
if
it
is
equipped with the
proper trailer towing equipment. To identify what the
vehicle trailering capacity is for your vehicle, you
should read the information in “Weight
of
the Trailer’’
that appears later
in
this section. But trailering is
different than just driving your vehicle by itself.
Trailering means changes
in
handling, durability and
fuel economy. Successful, safe trailering takes correct
equipment, and
it
has to
be
used properly.
