STARTING AND OPERATING

Towing Requirements — Tires



Do not attempt to tow a trailer while using a

compact spare tire.



Do not drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h) when

towing while using a full size spare tire.



Proper tire inflation pressures are essential to

the safe and satisfactory operation of your

vehicle. Refer to “Tires” in “Servicing And Main

tenance” for proper tire inflation procedures.



Check the trailer tires for proper tire inflation

pressures before trailer usage.



Check for signs of tire wear or visible tire

damage before towing a trailer. Refer to “Tires”

in “Servicing And Maintenance” for the proper

inspection procedure.



When replacing tires, refer to “Tires” in

“Servicing And Maintenance” for the proper tire

replacement procedures. Replacing tires with a

higher load carrying capacity will not increase

the vehicle's GVWR and GAWR limits.

Towing Requirements — Trailer Brakes



Do not interconnect the hydraulic brake system

or vacuum system of your vehicle with that of

the trailer. This could cause inadequate braking

and possible personal injury.



An electronically actuated trailer brake

controller is required when towing a trailer with

electronically actuated brakes. When towing a

trailer equipped with a hydraulic surge actuated

brake system, an electronic brake controller is

not required.



Trailer brakes are recommended for trailers

over 1,000 lbs (453 kg) and required for trailers

in excess of 2,000 lbs (907 kg).

Integrated Trailer Brake Module —

If Equipped

Your vehicle may have an Integrated Trailer Brake

Module (ITBM) for Electric and Electric Over

Hydraulic (EOH) trailer brakes.
NOTE:

This module has been designed and verified with

electric trailer brakes and new electric over

hydraulic systems. Some previous EOH systems

may not be compatible with ITBM.

Integrated Trailer Brake Module (ITBM)

WARNING!



Do not connect trailer brakes to your vehicle's

hydraulic brake lines. It can overload your

brake system and cause it to fail. You might

not have brakes when you need them and

could have an accident.



Towing any trailer will increase your stopping

distance. When towing, you should allow for

additional space between your vehicle and the

vehicle in front of you. Failure to do so could

result in an accident.

CAUTION!

If the trailer weighs more than 1,000 lbs (453 kg)

loaded, it should have its own brakes and they

should be of adequate capacity. Failure to do this

could lead to accelerated brake lining wear, higher

brake pedal effort, and longer stopping distances.
