Driving tips

– CONTINUED –
1) Hitch ball installation point
2) Hooks for safety chains
5. Use only a hitch ball that is appropriate for the
ball mount and your trailer. The hitch ball must be
securely installed on the ball mount.
6. Connect your trailer to the hitch ball.
7. Connect the trailer and the hitch with safety
chains that will hold the trailer’s maximum gross
weight. The chains should cross under the trailer
tongue to prevent the tongue from dropping onto the
ground in case it should disconnect from the hitch
ball. Allow sufficient slack in the chains taking tight–
turn situations into account; however, be careful not
to let them drag on the ground.
WARNING
Do not connect safety chains to part of the
vehicle other than the safety chain hooks.
