•
release the parking brake.

3. Drive slowly until the trailer is clear of the chocks.

Maintenance When Trailer Towing

The vehicle needs service more often when pulling a
trailer. See this manual's Maintenance Schedule or Index
for more information. Things that are especially important
in trailer operation are automatic transmission fluid,
engine oil, axle lubricant, belts, cooling system and brake
system. It is a good idea to inspect these before and
during the trip.
Check periodically to see that all hitch nuts and bolts
are tight.

Trailer Wiring Harness

The vehicle may have a seven-wire trailer towing
harness. This harness may have a seven-pin
universal heavy-duty trailer connector (if equipped
with the trailering package) that is attached to a
bracket on the hitch platform or included with the
four-pin trailer towing harness. If the vehicle is not
equipped with the heavy-duty trailer connector, one
may be purchased from your dealer/retailer.
