density with increasing altitude. In high
altitude regions above 3281feet (1000
metres), the stipulated maximum
permitted gross train weight must be
reduced by 10% for every extra 3281 feet
(1000 metres).
Note:
Not all vehicles are suitable or
approved to have tow bars fitted. See an
authorized dealer for further information.
Trailer Lighting
The electrical system on your vehicle is not
suitable for towing trailers with LED lamps.
TRAILER SWAY CONTROL
This feature applies your vehicle brakes at
individual wheels and if necessary, reduces
engine power. If the trailer begins to sway,
the traction control warning lamp will
flash.
Stop your vehicle as soon as it is safe to
do so and check for correct trailer nose
weight (vertical weight on the tow ball)
and trailer load distribution. See
Note:
This feature does not prevent trailer
sway, but reduces it once it begins.
Note:
This feature cannot stop all trailers
from swaying.
Note:
In some cases, if your vehicle speed
is too high, the system may turn on multiple
times, gradually reducing your vehicle speed.
