Driving tips
Maintain greater distances than when
travelling without a trailer.
Avoid braking suddenly. Apply the
brakes lightly at first to allow the trailer
to run on and then quickly increase the
braking force.
The vehicle's payload must be reduced
according to the noseweight so that
the permissible rear axle weight is not
exceeded.
The gradient-climbing capability from a
standstill is correct for sea level. When
driving in mountainous areas, note that
the power output of the engine, and
with it its gradient-climbing capability
from a standstill, decreases with in-
creasing altitude.

stances
do not turn the wheel to correct the line
brake if necessary
Risk of accident
Do not under any circumstances attempt to
draw out the vehicle/trailer combination by
accelerating.
Nur fuer internen Gebrauch
Risk of accident
Do not uncouple a trailer with an overrun
brake when the brake is engaged. Your hand
could otherwise become trapped between
the bumper and drawbar.
