Driving
Towing equipment varies by the size of your trailer, how much load you are towing,
and where you are towing.
■
Towbars
The towbar must be of an approved type and properly bolted to the underbody.
■
Safety chains
Always use safety chains when you tow a trailer. Leave enough slack to allow the
trailer to turn corners easily, but do not allow the chains to drag on the ground.
■
Trailer brakes
If you are thinking of getting a trailer that has brakes, be sure they are electronically
actuated. Do not attempt to tap into your vehicle’s hydraulic system. No matter how
successful it may seem, any attempt to attach trailer brakes to your vehicle’s
hydraulic system will lower braking effectiveness and create a potential hazard.
■
Additional towing equipment
There may be laws requiring special outside mirrors when towing a trailer. Even if
mirrors are not required in your locale, you should install special mirrors if visibility is
restricted in any way.
■
Trailer light
Trailer lights and equipment must comply with the regulations of the country where
you are driving. Check with your local trailer sales or rental agency for the
requirements in the area where you plan to tow.

Towing Equipment and Accessories
Make sure that all equipment is properly installed and
maintained, and that it meets the country’s
regulations where you are driving.
Consult your trailer sales or rental agency if any other
items are recommended or required for your towing
situation.
The lighting and wiring of trailers can vary by type
and brand. If a connector is required, it should only
be installed by a qualified technician.
