TOWING WITH THE VEHICLE
ý WARNING
• Do not tow a vehicle or trailer on public streets or highways.
• Normal vehicle operating speed should be reduced when towing.
• Extreme caution should be used when towing.
• Do not allow riders in the vehicle or trailer being towed.
• Avoid sudden starts, sudden stops, and tight turns when towing.
• Avoid stopping on a hill when towing. If you must stop on a hill, avoid sudden starts, or rolling
backwards and stopping suddenly. Failure to heed this warning may cause vehicle to
overturn, possibly resulting in severe personal injury.
Towing another vehicle or a trailer can have adverse effects on vehicle handling. Be especially cautious when
towing other equipment with this vehicle. See Vehicle Load Capacities on page 23 for vehicle capacity
information.
Parking the vehicle with a trailer on a hill should be avoided. If you must park on a hill, apply the brakes and
have someone chock the trailer tires. The brakes should be released to allow the chocks to absorb the trailer
load. After the trailer tires have been chocked, engage the park brake.
