Driving and Operating
Pulling a Trailer
Here are some important points:
.
There are many laws, including
speed limit restrictions that apply
to trailering. Check for legal
requirements.
.
Do not tow a trailer at all during
the first 1 600 km (1,000 miles)
the new vehicle is driven.
The engine, axle or other
parts could be damaged.
.
During the first 800 km
(500 miles) that a trailer is
towed, do not drive over
80 km/h (50 mph) and do
not make starts at full throttle.
This reduces wear on the
vehicle.
.
The vehicle can tow in
D (Drive). Use a lower gear if
the transmission shifts too often.
.
Do not use the Fuel Economy
Mode when towing.
.
Obey speed limit restrictions.
Do not drive faster than the
maximum posted speed for
trailers, or no more than
90 km/h (55 mph), to reduce
wear on the vehicle.
Driving with a Trailer
Towing a trailer requires experience.
Get familiar with handling and
braking with the added trailer
weight. The vehicle is now longer
and not as responsive as the
vehicle is by itself.
Check all trailer hitch parts
and attachments, safety chains,
electrical connectors, lamps, tires
and mirror adjustments. If the trailer
has electric brakes, start the vehicle
and trailer moving and then apply
the trailer brake controller by hand
to be sure the brakes are working.
During the trip, check regularly to be
sure that the load is secure, and the
lamps and trailer brakes are working
properly.
Towing with a Stability Control
System
When towing, the sound of the
stability control system might be
heard. The system is reacting to
the vehicle movement caused by
the trailer, which mainly occurs
during cornering. This is normal
when towing heavier trailers.
