Backing Up Trailers
If you have never towed a trailer before, take the time to practice backing your trailer
before using it for the first time. Follow these guidelines when backing:
•
Back slowly and make small steering adjustments.
•
Turn the vehicle wheels in the opposite direction you want the trailer to go.
•
After the trailer begins moving, turn the vehicle to follow it.
•
Have a second person assist you with hand signals.
