CAUTION

To avoid an accident

Do not exceed 45 mph (72 km/h) or posted towing speed limit, whichever
is lower. As instability (swaying) of the towing vehicle-trailer combination
increases as speed increases, exceeding 45 mph (72 km/h) may cause
loss of control.

Slow down and downshift before descending steep or long downhill
grades. Do not make sudden downshifts.

Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or applying the brakes too
frequently. This could cause the brakes to overheat and result in reduced
braking efficiency.

Do not use cruise control when you are towing.
