Towing a Trailer

CAUTION:
{
If you do not use the correct equipment and
drive properly, you can lose control when you
pull a trailer. For example, if the trailer is too
heavy, the brakes may not work well — or even
at all. You and your passengers could be
seriously injured. You may also damage your
vehicle; the resulting repairs would not be
covered by your warranty. Pull a trailer only if
you have followed all the steps in this section.
Ask your dealer/retailer for advice and
information about towing a trailer with your
vehicle.
Your vehicle can tow a trailer if it has the proper trailer
towing equipment. To identify the trailering capacity
of your vehicle, read the information in "Weight of the
Trailer" that appears later in this section. Trailering
is different than just driving the vehicle by itself.
