Driving with a Trailer

{

CAUTION:

If you have a rear-most window open and you
pull a trailer with your vehicle, carbon monoxide
(CO) could come into your vehicle. You cannot
see or smell CO. It can cause unconsciousness
or death. See

Engine Exhaust on page 2-51

.

To maximize your safety when towing a trailer:

•

Have your exhaust system inspected for
leaks, and make necessary repairs before
starting on your trip.

•

Keep the rear-most windows closed.

•

If exhaust does come into your vehicle
through a window in the rear or another
opening, drive with your front, main heating
or cooling system on and with the fan on
any speed. This will bring fresh, outside air
into your vehicle. Do not use the climate
control setting for maximum air because
it only recirculates the air inside your
vehicle. See

Climate Control System (With

Air Conditioning ) on page 3-26

or

Climate

Control System (Heater Only) on page 3-29

.

Towing a trailer requires a certain amount of experience.
Before setting out for the open road, you’ll want to get
to know your rig. Acquaint yourself with the feel of
handling and braking with the added weight of the trailer.
And always keep in mind that the vehicle you are
driving is now a good deal longer and not nearly as
responsive as your vehicle is by itself.

Before you start, check all trailer hitch parts and
attachments, safety chains, electrical connector, lamps,
tires and mirror adjustment. If the trailer has electric
brakes, start your vehicle and trailer moving and then
apply the trailer brake controller by hand to be sure
the brakes are working. This lets you check your
electrical connection at the same time.

During your trip, check occasionally to be sure that
the load is secure, and that the lamps and any trailer
brakes are still working.

While towing a trailer or when exposed to long periods
of sunshine, the floor of the truck bed may become
very warm. Avoid putting items in the truck bed
that might be affected by high ambient temperatures.
