Trailer towing
E00610000260
In order to tow a trailer with your vehicle, have a trailer towing
device mounted that meets all the relevant regulations in your
area. Consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
The regulations concerning the towing of a trailer may differ
from country to country. You are advised to comply with the
regulations in each area.
NOTE
●
If you are going to tow a trailer, pay careful attention to
the following points.
Maximum towable weight with brake and
maximum trailer-nose weight
Never exceed the maximum towable weight with brake and the
maximum trailer-nose weight as listed in the specifications.
(Refer to page 9-9.)
If you tow a trailer at an altitude of more than 1, 000 m above
sea-level, reduce your weight by 10 % of the gross combina-
tion weight for every increase of 1,000 m above sea-level, as
the engine output is lowered owing to the decrease in atmos-
pheric pressure.
Tow bar mounting specifications
See the following table for fixing points (A) for the tow bar.
CAUTION
!
●
Danger of Accident!
A tow bar should be fitted according to
MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines.
