WARNING!

(Continued)

Total weight must be distributed between the tow

vehicle and the trailer such that the following four
ratings are not exceeded:

1. Max loading as defined on the “Tire and Loading

Information” placard.

2. GTW
3. GAWR
4. Tongue weight rating for the trailer hitch uti-

lized. (This requirement may limit the ability to
always achieve the 10% to 15% range of tongue
weight as a percentage of total trailer weight.)

CAUTION!

Do not tow a trailer at all during the first 500 miles

(805 km) the new vehicle is driven. The engine, axle
or other parts could be damaged.

Then, during the first 500 miles (805 km) that a

trailer is towed, do not drive over 50 mph (80 km/h)
and do not make starts at full throttle. This helps
the engine and other parts of the vehicle wear in at
the heavier loads.
