WHEN YOU ARE READY TO LEAVE AFTER
PARKING ON A HILL
1. Apply your foot brakes and hold the
pedal down while you:
• Start your engine
• Shift into a gear and
• Release the handbrake.
2. Let up on the brake pedal.
3. Drive slowly until the trailer is clear
of the chocks.
4. Stop and have someone pick up and
store the chocks.

MAINTENANCE WHEN TRAILER TOWING

Your vehicle will need service more of-
ten when you're pulling a trailer. See
the maintenance Schedule for more in-
formation on this. Things that are es-
pecially important in trailer operation
are automatic transaxle fluid (don't over-
fill), engine oil, belt, cooling system,
brake fluid and brake adjustment. Each
of these is covered in this manual and
the index will help you find them
quickly. If you're trailering, it's a good
idea to review these sections before you
start your trip.
Check periodically to see that all hitch
nuts and bolts are tight.

ENGINE EXHAUST (CARBON
MONOXIDE)
Engine exhaust gases contain carbon
monoxide (CO) which is colorless and
odorless. Prolonged exposure to CO can
lead to unconsciousness and death.
Whenever you suspect that exhaust
gases are entering the vehicle, immedi-
ately take your vehicle to your autho-
rized repairer.
