Hitches
It is important to have the correct
hitch equipment. Crosswinds, large
trucks going by and rough roads are
a few reasons why the right hitch is
needed.
.
The rear bumper on the vehicle
is not intended for hitches. Do
not attach rental hitches or other
bumper-type hitches to it. Use
only a frame-mounted hitch that
does not attach to the bumper.
.
Will any holes be made in the
body of the vehicle when the
trailer hitch is installed? If there
are, then be sure to seal the
holes later when the hitch is
removed. If the holes are not
sealed, dirt, water, and deadly
carbon monoxide (CO) from the
exhaust can get into the vehicle.

Installing the Hitch
1. Remove the hitch cover and
store in a safe place.
2. Make sure the hitch is ready to
be installed.
.
The red marking on the
knob points towards the
green mark on the hitch.
.
There is a gap of 6 mm
(0.24 in) between the knob
and the hitch.
.
The key is in the lock.
3. If the hitch is not ready to be
installed, the tension must be
set by pulling the knob out and
turning it clockwise as far as it
will go.
