Maximum towing capacity
(trailer, cargo & tow bar)
Braked trailer: 1000 kg (2205 lbs)
Unbraked trailer: 400 kg (882 lbs)
WARNING
For vehicles equipped with the radar
brake support or dual sensor brake
support, if your vehicle is used to tow
a trailer, press the radar brake sup-
port OFF switch or dual sensor brake
support OFF switch and turn off the
radar brake support or dual sensor
brake support. If not, unexpected
accidents related to the system being
turned on may occur.
NOTICE
Trailer towing puts additional stress
on the engine, drive train and brakes
of your vehicle. Never tow a trailer
during the first 960 km (600 miles) of
vehicle operation.
NOTICE
For automatic transaxle or CVT vehi-
cles, do not use "D" range when tow-
ing on a steep hill. Towing in "D"
range when driving on a steep hill
can cause automatic transaxle fluid
or CVT fluid overheating without
warning, which can result in tran-
saxle damage.
VEHICLE LOADING AND TOWING
Tow bars
Only use a tow bar that is designed to
attach to the chassis of your vehicle, and a
hitch that is designed to bolt to this tow bar.
We recommend that you use a genuine
SUZUKI tow bar (available as option), or
equivalent.
WARNING
Never use a tow bar which attaches
to the axle or the bumper of your
vehicle.
Safety chains
Always attach safety chains between your
vehicle and trailer. Cross safety chains
under the nose of the trailer so that the
nose will not drop to the road if the trailer
becomes separated from the tow bar. Fol-
low the manufacturer's recommendation
for attaching safety chains. Always leave
just enough slack to permit full turning.
Never allow safety chains to drag on the
road.
WARNING
Never attach safety chains to the
bumper of your vehicle. Secure con-
nections so that they cannot come
loose.
