towing a trailer
good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep slope in high temperatures), the
engine automatically limits its power.
In this case, the air conditioning is
automatically cut off to save engine
power.
tyres
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer
, observing the
recommended pressures. Chapter 7, "Levels" section.If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible. Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change
down early and brake gradually.
