safely as possible.
To maintain warranty coverage, follow the requirements
and recommendations in this manual concerning ve-
hicles used for trailer towing.

(GAWR) by the addition of:
The tongue weight of the trailer.

use. However the following conditions must be met:
The maximum trailer load is 1,000 lbs (450 kg).
The maximum frontal area of the trailer cannot exceed
20 square feet (1.86 square meters).
If using a manual transaxle vehicle for trailer towing,
all starts must be in FIRST gear to avoid excessive

should never exceed the weight referenced on the Tire
