Towing A Trailer - Can-Am Spyder RT Operator's Manual

Glove Box
The glove box provides room to store
small personal articles.
It is very convenient to store items that
could be needed quickly during a ride
(such as money for pay toll).
NOTE: A key barrel is supplied in the
glove box to use with the BRP optional
trailer. This allows to use the vehicle
key for the trailer.
Front Storage Compartment
The front storage compartment is the
most spacious and has room to store
two helmets or other items. The front
storage compartment includes a desig-
nated space for this Operator's Guide.
Make sure the compartment cover is
securely latched before riding.
Side Storage Compartments
The side storage compartments have
room to store a helmet or other light
objects.

Towing a Trailer

The RT series has been designed to be
able to tow a BRP optional trailer (with
the optional BRP hitch).
SE-5 Models
When a trailer is towed, the trailer
mode must be activated to adapt
gear changes. Refer to
TRAILER MODE (p.90)
NOTICE
If the trailer mode is not
selected through the infotainment
center before towing a trailer, en-
gine components might be dam-
aged.
All Models
The VSS (vehicle stability system) on
the roadster RT series incorporates
a program that allows to tow a BRP
trailer while maintaining appropriate
vehicle stability control.
Use only a BRP trailer designed specif-
ically for the Roadster RT series or a
BRP approved equivalent. This is im-
portant to ensure the trailer and the
roadster remain stable during normal
operation and it does not interfere with
the vehicle stability system.
NOTICE
The use
recommended
may lead to vehicle electrical sys-
tem failure.
