HONDA 2009 CR-V - Manual (Page 265)

Your vehicle has been designed
primarily to carry passengers and
their cargo. You can also use it to
tow a trailer if you carefully observe
the load limits, use the proper
equipment, and follow the guidelines
in this section.
The
maximum allowable weight of the
trailer and everything in or on it
must not exceed 1,500 lbs (680 kg).
Towing a load that is too heavy can
seriously affect your vehicle’s
handling and performance. It can
also damage the engine and
drivetrain.
Be sure to read the
section on page
if you plan to tow off paved
surfaces.
Avoid towing a trailer during your
vehicle’s first 600 miles (1,000 km)
(see page
).
