Turn Signals When Towing a Trailer

The arrows on the instrument panel flash whenever

signaling a turn or lane change. Properly hooked up,

the trailer lamps also flash, telling other drivers the

vehicle is turning, changing lanes or stopping.

When towing a trailer, the arrows on the instrument

panel flash for turns even if the bulbs on the trailer are

burned out. For this reason you may think other drivers

are seeing the signal when they are not. It is important

to check occasionally to be sure the trailer bulbs are still

working.

Driving on Grades

Notice: Do not tow on steep continuous grades

exceeding 9.6 km (6 miles). Extended, higher than

normal engine and transmission temperatures may

result and damage the vehicle. Frequent stops are

very important to allow the engine and transmission

to cool.

When towing under severe conditions such as hot

ambient temperatures or steep grades, the vehicle may

experience more transmission shifting. A COOLING

MODE ON message may also appear in the DIC. This

alerts the driver that the shifting mode is in progress

and is aiding engine cooling. See DIC Warnings and

Messages

on page 4‑41

DIC Warnings and Messages

for more information.

Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear before starting

down a long or steep downgrade. If the transmission is

not shifted down, the brakes might have to be used so

much that they would get hot and no longer work well.

Pay attention to the engine coolant gauge. If the

indicator is in the red area, turn off the air conditioning

to reduce engine load. See Engine Overheating

Parking on Hills

{

WARNING:

Parking the vehicle on a hill with the trailer

attached can be dangerous. If something goes

wrong, the rig could start to move. People can be

injured, and both the vehicle and the trailer can be

damaged. When possible, always park the rig on

a flat surface.

If parking the rig on a hill:

1. Press the brake pedal, but do not shift into P (Park)

yet. Turn the wheels into the curb if facing downhill

or into traffic if facing uphill.

2. Have someone place chocks under the trailer

wheels.
