Towing Tips

Before setting out on a trip, practice turning, stopping, and

backing the trailer in an area located away from heavy traffic.

Automatic Transmission — If Equipped

Select the DRIVE range when towing. The transmission

controls include a drive strategy to avoid frequent shifting

when towing. However, if frequent shifting does occur while

in DRIVE, you can use the AutoStick shift control to manu-

ally select a lower gear.

NOTE:

Using a lower gear while operating the vehicle under heavy

loading conditions will improve performance and extend

transmission life by reducing excessive shifting and heat

build up. This action will also provide better engine braking.
