Otherwise you may void the New Vehicle Warranty, to the extent that Holden considers the overloading or missing equipment to have affected the specifications or quality of the vehicle.
Page 118 Holden towing equipment is recommended where it is available. Where it is not available, no recommendation is made as to the make of equipment to be used. Holden will not accept liability for defects occurring in inappropriate towing equipment or for defects in the vehicle arising from the use of such equipment or for loss or injury caused by use of such equipment.
Page 119 Driving and operating If the tow ball load is too light or too heavy, the steering and handling of the vehicle may be affected. As a general guideline, for single axle trailers, the ball load should be approximately 10 % of the loaded trailer mass. For heavy trailers with more than one axle, the ball load should be in the range of 5 % - 10 % of the loaded trailer mass.
Page 120 Driving and operating Note At no time may the maximum towing capacity exceed the maximums specified. Refer to Maximum towing capacity previously in this chapter. At no time may the total rear axle load exceed the maximums specified. Refer to Loading the vehicle previously in this chapter.
Page 121 Remember that bull bars may affect airbag operation. Running in before towing Holden recommends that you drive your new vehicle for at least 1,500 km before towing. If you must tow in the first 1,500 km of the vehicle’s life, do not exceed 80 km/h.

Otherwise you may void the New Vehicle Warranty, to the extent that Holden considers the overloading or missing equipment to have affected the specifications or quality of the vehicle.
Page 302 Holden towing equipment is recommended where it is available. Where it is not available, no recommendation is made as to the make of equipment to be used. Holden will not accept liability for defects occurring in inappropriate towing equipment or for defects in the vehicle arising from the use of such equipment or for loss or injury caused by use of such equipment.
Page 303 Driving and operating If the tow ball load is too light or too heavy, the steering and handling of the vehicle may be affected. As a general guideline, for single axle trailers, the ball load should be approximately 10 % of the loaded trailer mass. For heavy trailers with more than one axle, the ball load should be in the range of 5 % - 10 % of the loaded trailer mass.
Page 304 Driving and operating Note At no time may the maximum towing capacity exceed the maximums specified. Refer to Maximum towing capacity previously in this chapter. At no time may the total rear axle load exceed the maximums specified. Refer to Loading the vehicle previously in this chapter.
Page 305 Remember that bull bars may affect airbag operation. Running in before towing Holden recommends that you drive your new vehicle for at least 1,500 km before towing. If you must tow in the first 1,500 km of the vehicle’s life, do not exceed 80 km/h.
