Towing Requirements – Tires
− Do not attempt to tow a trailer while using a
compact spare tire.
− Proper tire inflation pressures are essential
for the safe and satisfactory operation of
your vehicle. Refer to Tires – General Infor-
mation” in “Starting and Operating” 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 – General Information” in “Starting and
Operating” for the proper inspection proce-
dure.
− When replacing tires, refer to “Tires – Gen-
eral Information” in “Starting and Operating”
for proper tire replacement procedures. Re-
placing 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 sys-
tem or vacuum system of your vehicle with
that of the trailer. This could cause inad-
equate braking and possible personal injury.
− When towing a trailer equipped with a hy-
draulic surge actuated brake system, an
electronic brake controller is not required.
− Trailer brakes are recommended for trailers
over 1,000 lbs (450 kg) and required for
trailers in excess of 1,653 lbs (750 kg).
CAUTION!
If the trailer weighs more than 1,000 lbs
(450 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.
WARNING!
•
Do not connect trailer brakes to your vehi-
cle’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 stop-
ping 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.
Towing Requirements – Trailer
Lights And Wiring
Whenever you pull a trailer, regardless of the
trailer size, stop lights and turn signals on the
trailer are required for motoring safety.
The Trailer Tow Package may include a 7-pin or
a 13-pin wiring harness. Use a factory ap-
proved trailer harness and connector.
NOTE:
Do not cut or splice wiring into the vehicles
wiring harness.
