Drive slower than normal in all
driving situations, and obey posted
speed limits for vehicles with trailers.
If you have an automatic
transmission, use the D position
when towing a trailer on level roads.
D is the proper shift lever position
to use when towing a trailer in hilly
terrain. (See ‘‘
’’ in the
following column for additional gear
information.)
When towing a trailer in the
Sequential SportShift mode, select
Fourth, Third, Second, or First gear;
depending on the vehicle speed and
road condition. Do not use Fifth gear.
The recommended speed range for
each gear position is shown in the
table.

The added weight, length, and
height of a trailer will affect your car’s
handling and performance, so
driving with a trailer requires some
special driving skills and techniques.
For your safety and the safety of
others, take time to practice driving
manoeuvres before heading for the
open road, and follow the guidelines
discussed below.
