while you are coupling or decoupling a trailer,

you could become trapped. In addition, other

people could become trapped if their limbs

combination if it begins to swerve. The vehi-

cle/trailer combination could even overturn.

There is a risk of an accident.
On no account should you attempt to

straighten out the vehicle/trailer combina-

tion by increasing speed. Decrease your

speed and do not countersteer. Brake if nec-

essary.

WARNING

system is exceeded, the carrier could come

loose from the vehicle and endanger other

road users. There is a risk of an accident and
