Make sure the relevant safety warnings and cautions have been read and understood before towing a trailer. See TOWING SAFETY.
The fitting of a tow hitch is required before towing. See TOW HITCH.
The tow hitch receiver is rated as Class IV.
Make sure that safety chains are used and connected as shown.
Do not loop a safety chain over the tow ball. The safety chain may slide off, preventing correct operation in the event that the trailer becomes disconnected. Failure to correctly secure a safety chain could result in serious injury or death.
