Owner's Manual

During your trip, check occasionally to be sure that
the
load
is
secure,
and
that the lights and
any
trailer brakes are still working.
Following
Distance
Stay at least twice as far behind the vehicle ahead
as
you would when
driving your
vehicle
without
a
trailer. This can help
you
avoid situations
that
require heavy braking and sudden turns.
Passing
You’ll
need more passing distance up ahead when you’re towing a trailer.
And, because you’re a good deal longer, you’ll need
to
go much farther
beyond the passed vehicle
before
you can return to your lane.
Backing
Up
Hold the bottom
of
the
steering wheel
with
one hand. Then, to move the
trailer to
the
left, just move that hand to the left. To move the trailer to the
right, move your hand to the right. Always back up slowly and,
if
possible,
have someone guide you.
