Towing a trailer, 2009 pilot – HONDA 2009 Pilot User Manual
Page 451
Your vehicle is equipped with a
connector to install an optional trailer
lighting connector that mates with
your vehicle. You can get this
optional connector from your dealer.
Refer to the above illustration for
wiring information.
Trailer lights and equipment must
comply with federal, state, province,
and local regulations. Check trailer
light requirements for the areas
where you plan to tow, and use only
equipment designed for your vehicle.
When towing a trailer, we
recommend that you carry a full-size
spare wheel and tire for your vehicle
and trailer. When replacing the
compact spare with a full size spare,
remove the plastic spacer (see page
). Store the plastic spacer and
compact spare together. Reinstall
the spacer before once again stowing
the compact spare.
See page
for proper tire size,
page
for how to store a full size
wheel and tire, and page
for
information on changing a flat tire.
Remember to unhitch the trailer
before changing a flat. Ask your
trailer sales or rental agency where
and how to store the trailer’s spare
tire.
