Your vehicle tires and spare are
properly inflated (see page

),

and the trailer tires and spare are
inflated as recommended by the
trailer maker.

When preparing to tow, and before
driving away, be sure to check the
following:

The vehicle has been properly
serviced, and the tires, brakes,
suspension, and cooling system
are in good operating condition.

All weights and loads are within
limits (see pages

and

).

All items on and in the trailer are
properly secured and cannot shift
while you drive.

The lights and brakes on your
vehicle and the trailer are working
properly.

Many states and Canadian provinces
require special outside mirrors when
towing a trailer. Even if they don’t,
you should install special mirrors if
you cannot clearly see behind you, or
if the trailer creates a blind spot.

Ask your trailer sales or rental
agency if any other items are
recommended or required for your
towing situation.

The hitch, safety chains, and any
other attachments are secure.
