Towing Tips

Before setting out on a trip, practice turning, stopping

and backing the trailer in an area away from heavy

traffic.

If using a manual transmission vehicle for trailer towing,

all starts must be in FIRST gear to avoid excessive clutch

slippage.

Towing Tips — Automatic Transmission

The “D” range can be selected when towing. However, if

frequent shifting occurs while in this range, the “TOW

HAUL” or “OD/OFF” range should be selected.

NOTE: Using the “TOW HAUL” or “OD/OFF” range

while operating the vehicle under heavy operating con-

ditions will improve performance and extend transmis-

sion life by reducing excessive shifting and heat build up.

This action will also provide better engine braking.

The automatic transmission fluid and filter should be

changed if you REGULARLY tow a trailer for more than

45 minutes of continuous operation. See Schedule “B” in

section 8 of this manual for transmission fluid change

intervals.
