Driving
Towing a Trailer
Your vehicle is not designed to tow a trailer. Attempting to do so can void your
warranties.
Towing Preparation
Your vehicle can tow a trailer if you carefully observe the load limits, use the proper
equipment, and follow the towing guidelines. Check the load limits before driving.
■
Total trailer weight
Do not exceed the maximum towing weight
of the trailer and towbar (with/without
brakes), luggage and everything in or on it.
Towing loads in excess of the maximum
towing weight can seriously affect vehicle
handling and performance and can damage
the engine and drivetrain.

Towing Load Limits

Check if all loads are within limits at a public scale.
If a public scale is not available, add the estimated
weight of your luggage load to the weight of your
trailer (as quoted by the manufacturer), and the
trailer nose load.
Break-in Period
Avoid towing a trailer during your vehicle’s first 1,000
km.
If you tow a trailer in mountainous conditions,
remember to reduce 10% of the combined vehicle
and trailer weights from the maximum towing
weight for every 1,000 metres of elevation.
Never exceed the maximum towing weight and
specified load limit.

crash in which you can be seriously hurt or
killed.
Check the loading of your vehicle and
trailer carefully before starting to drive.
