The added weight, length, and
height of a trailer will affect your
vehicle’s handling and performance,
so driving with a trailer requires
some special driving skills and
techniques.
For your safety and the safety of
others, take time to practice driving
manoeuvre before heading for the
open road, and follow the guidelines
below.
The lights and brakes on your
vehicle and the trailer are working
properly.
Your vehicle tyres and spare (if
equipped) are properly inflated,
and the trailer tyres and spare are
inflated as recommended by the
trailer maker.
Be sure to check regulations
concerning the maximum speed or
driving restrictions for vehicles
towing trailers. If you are driving
across several countries, check
each country’s requirements
before leaving home, because
regulations may vary.
Operating speed when towing a
trailer is restricted to 100 km/h
(62 mph).
Drive slower than normal in all
driving situations, and obey posted
speed limits for vehicles with trailers.
Do not exceed the limited speed
when towing a trailer. At higher
speeds, the trailer may sway or
affect vehicle handling (see ‘‘
’’ in the next page for
additional gear information).
If you have an i-SHIFT (automated
manual transmission), use the
automatic mode when towing a
trailer. When you start or accelerate
away from a stop, the transmission
starts in the first gear and is
controlled for smooth operation.
Selecting the gear is electronically
controlled for smoother shifting and
better fuel economy according to the
vehicle load and the trailer’s weight.
