TOWING WITH THE VEHICLE

ýWARNING

•Do not tow a vehicle or trailer on public streets or highways.

•Normal vehicle operating speed should be reduced when towing.

•Extreme caution should be used when towing.

•Do not allow riders in the vehicle or trailer being towed.

•Avoid sudden starts, sudden stops, and tight turns when towing.

•Avoid stopping on a hill when towing. If you must stop on a hill, avoid sudden starts, or rolling backwards and stopping suddenly. Failure to heed this warning may cause vehicle to overturn, possibly resulting in severe personal injury.

Towing another vehicle or a trailer can have adverse effects on vehicle handling. Be especially cautious when towing other equipment with this vehicle. See Vehicle Load Capacities on page 23 for vehicle capacity information.

Parking the vehicle with a trailer on a hill should be avoided. If you must park on a hill, apply the brakes and have someone chock the trailer tires. The brakes should be released to allow the chocks to absorb the trailer load. After the trailer tires have been chocked, engage the park brake.
