EXTERIOR
Your motorhome is equipped with a hitch and tow plug, as it is designed for towing light loads. Your hitch
may provide you with the capability of towing your car or trailer while traveling. A wiring harness or pigtail
is needed to connect tail lights, brake lights, turn lights, etc. of the towed vehicle with that of the coach.
Some coach models feature rear docking lights to assist with tow vehicle hookup at night.
Hitches and Towing Components
Prior To Towing
Prior to towing, inspect all towing connections, including
the hitch mounting bolts for unusual wear or corrosion.
Check the mounting flanges for any deformation, as well
as the hitch welds for any cracks, signs of movement,
or fatigue in the hitch assembly. Safe and satisfactory
performance of the towing system depends on the type
of towing equipment connected to the hitch receiver. The
assembled length of the drawbar/towing system used
should be kept to a minimum. Do not exceed the rated
capacities of the hitch or the components used to attach
the towed vehicle or trailer.
Towing Capacity
The total weight of the motorhome and any vehicle
towed must not exceed the GCWR (Gross Combined
Weight Rating). When planning to tow, approaching
the GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) may reduce
the motorhome’s towing capacity. When weighing the
motorhome, be sure to take passenger locations into
consideration. The towed vehicles must have adequate
active brakes. Contact your state Department of
Transportation or your local Newmar dealer for your state
requirements.
Newmar is not responsible for damage or failure of the hitch receiver caused by the use of excessively long drawbars
or other styles of drawbars that create leverage loads on the hitch receiver beyond its designed capabilities.

Your coach may be equipped with convex remote-controlled two-part exterior rear view mirrors. The top
portion of the mirror is flat, providing conventional reflected views down the sides of the RV, while the
bottom portion is convex to provide an expanded view, helping to eliminate blind spots. These mirrors may
also contain heating elements to defog, defrost, or de-ice the mirror glass during cold weather operation. Some mirrors
can be operated via remote control.
