It's  important  to  have the  correct  hitch
equipment.   Crosswinds,   large   trucks
going by, and rough roads are a few rea-
sons why you’ll need the right hitch. Here
are some rules to follow:
Maximum trailer
weight
Without trailer brakes
With trailer brakes
Maximum permissible static vertical
load on the coupling device

Will you have to make any holes in the
body of your vehicle when you install a
trailer hitch? If you  do, then be sure to
seal the  holes later when  you remove
the hitch.
This section  contains many  time-tested,
important trailering  tips and safety rules.
Many  of  these  are   important  for  your
safety   and  that   of   your  passengers.
Please read this  section carefully before
you pull a trailer.
CAUTION
Pulling   a   trailer   improperly   can
damage  your vehicle  and result  in
costly repairs  not covered  by your
warranty. To pull  a trailer  correctly,
follow the advice in this section.
If you  don’t seal  them, deadly  carbon
monoxide (CO) from your  exhaust can
get into your vehicle, as well as dirt and
water.
The bumpers  on  your vehicle  are not
intended  for   hitches.  Do  not   attach
rental  hitches   or  other   bumper-type
hitches  to  them.  Use  only   a  frame-
mounted hitch  that does not  attach to
the bumper.
Load-pulling  components   such  as  the
engine, transaxle, wheel assemblies, and
tires  are forced  to  work  harder against
the load of the added weight. The engine
is required to operate  at relatively higher
speeds  and  under  greater   loads. This
additional  burden generates  extra  heat.
The  trailer   also  adds   considerably  to
wind  resistance,  increasing  the  pulling
requirements.
Your vehicle can  tow a trailer. To identify
what the vehicle  trailering capacity is for
your vehicle,  you  should read  the infor-
mation  in   “Weight  of   the  Trailer”  that
appears later in this section.
Remember that trailering is different than
driving    your   vehicle    by   itself.
Trailering  means  changes  in   handling,
durability, and fuel  economy. Successful,
safe  trailering   requires   correct  equip-
ment, and it has to be used  properly.
