52 • SECTION 2 --- DRIVING & SAFETY
NEPTUNE 2004
WARNING: Do not tow a trailer or vehicle that exceeds the rated
capacity of the hitch receiver. Overloading the hitch receiver can cause
unusual handling characteristics and overstress the hitch receiver and
chassis. It could also void the warranty. If there are any questions, call
a factory technician.
Tow Car or Trailer:
1. Connect a tow car or trailer to the motorhome
with safety chains rated for the weight of
load.
2. Make the electrical connection and perform
a light check before starting a trip and at
each rest stop.
3. Check the tires frequently. Flat tires on a
towed vehicle cannot be detected from the
motorhome while driving. A flat tire is a
safety hazard and may cause extensive damage.
WARNING: Be sure weight ratings of the ball mount, tow ball and
safety chains are equal to or greater than the load. The use of an
extension to the receiver or extended ball mount will significantly reduce
hitch receiver weight ratings. Modifications to the hitch receiver, or use
of the hitch receiver other than intended, can void the warranty on
hitch receiver, chassis or both.
The motorhome is prewired with a trailer wire
harness. The harness is located on or near the
hitch receiver. Convoluted tubing protects the tow
harness wires. Current draw should not exceed
ten amps for each designated circuit.
NOTE: When towing a trailer or vehicle
with a two-wire system, a turn signal/brake
light converter will be needed to adapt the
tow plug wiring to the item being towed.
