Driving and Operating
Towing Equipment
Hitches
Always use the correct hitch
equipment for your vehicle.
Crosswinds, large trucks going
by, and rough roads can affect
the trailer and the hitch.
Never attach rental hitches or
other bumper-type hitches.
Only use frame-mounted
hitches that do not attach to
the bumper.
Hitch Cover
To remove the hitch cover,
if equipped:
1. Remove the two fasteners
on the lower tabs.
2. Pull the lower edge of the
cover to about a 45 degree
angle.
3. Pull the cover downward
to disengage the upper
attachments.
To reinstall the hitch cover:
1. Hold the cover at a
45 degree angle to the
vehicle and push the upper
tabs into the slots in the
bumper.
2. Push the bottom of the
cover forward until the
lower tabs line up with the
lower slots.
3. Snap the hitch cover into
place by pushing the upper
corners forward.
4. Reinstall the two fasteners
on the lower tabs.
Consider using mechanical
sway controls with any trailer.
Ask a trailering professional
about sway controls or refer
to the trailer manufacturer's
recommendations and
instructions.

A weight-distributing hitch
may be useful with some
