Your vehicle will handle differently when towing a trailer. In order to avoid
accident, death or serious injury, keep the following in mind when towing:

■

Checking connections between trailer and lights

Stop the vehicle and check the operation of the connection between
the trailer and lights after driving for a brief period as well as before
starting off.

■

Practicing driving with a coupled trailer

●

Get the feel for turning, stopping and reversing with the trailer cou-
pled by practicing in an area with no or light traffic.

●

When reversing with a coupled trailer, hold the section of the steer-
ing wheel nearest to you and rotate clockwise to turn the trailer left
or counterclockwise to turn it right. Always rotate a little at a time to
prevent steering error. Have someone guide you when reversing to
lessen the risk of an accident.

NOTICE

■

When the rear bumper strengthening material is aluminum

Ensure the steel bracket part does not come directly in contact with that area.
When steel and aluminum come into contact, there is a reaction similar to corro-
sion, which will weaken the section concerned and may result in damage. Apply a
rust inhibitor to parts that will come in contact when attaching a steel bracket.
