WARNING:
V Review the compatibility of your tow vehicle with the trailer you will be
towing. You, as the owner, are responsible for the safety and
compatibility of your tow vehicle and trailer selections.
V You must not exceed the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of the
trailer. Include all additions, cargo and tank fluids when calculating the
weight of your trailer.
V Do not exceed the towing or cargo capacity of your tow vehicle. You
must clearly understand how your tow vehicle's capacities are
calculated.
V Do not load your trailer so that it is unbalanced from front to rear or
from side to side.
V Know your loaded hitch weight and select a hitch that is adequate for
that weight. Consult your hitch and tow vehicle manufacturers with any
questions before you tow your trailer.
V You are responsible for the maintenance of your tow vehicle and trailer.
Make sure your tow vehicle is mechanically sound for your intended
usage. Pay particular attention to suspension components, tires and tire
pressure.
V We recommend the use of sway control devices and weight distributing
hitches with all Jayco towable products (excluding fifth-wheels, which
use a different type of hitch).
V Obey all traffic laws and use your seatbelts at all times. Many states
have lower speed limit requirements for tow vehicle/trailer
combinations. We recommend that you do not exceed 55 MPH when
towing a trailer.
Consult an expert for specific driver education when towing a trailer. There are private RV
driving schools, and some RV clubs, which offer driving seminars as part of their club
activities. Recreation vehicle publications and the Internet can be a source of information
regarding RV driver education, as well as many other topics to help you learn to safely use
your recreation vehicle.
