Towing Loads
WARNING! Towing improperly can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss of
control or brake instability.
Towing improperly can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss of
control or brake instability. Always follow these precautions when
towing:
1. Never load more than 150 lbs. (68.1 kg) tongue weight on the
towing bracket.
2. When transporting heavy loads and/or when towing, always operate
the vehicle in low gear.
3. Do not operate the vehicle faster than 10 MPH (16 km/h) when
towing. See page 66. Towing a trailer increases braking distance.
4. Do not tow more than the recommended weight for the vehicle. See
the towing capacity chart below and the specifications charts
beginning on page 132.
5. Attach a trailer to the trailer hitch bracket only. Do not attach a
trailer to any other location or you may lose control of the vehicle.
6. Never tow a trailer on a grade steeper than 15°.
