Trailer Brakes
Safety Chains
If your trailer is equipped with a braking system,
make sure it conforms to federal and/or local
regulations and that it is properly installed and
operating correctly.
Should the hitch connection between your car
and the trailer or vehicle you are towing fail, the
trailer or vehicle could wander dangerously
across other lanes of traffic and ultimately col-
lide with another vehicle. To eliminate this po-
tentially dangerous situation, safety chains, at-
tached between your car and the trailer or
towed vehicle, are required in most provinces.
the back than in the front. About 60% of
the trailer load should be in the front half
on the trailer and the remaining 40% in
the rear.
2. The total gross vehicle weight with trailer
must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) shown on the vehicle iden-
tification plate (see page 8-1). The total
gross vehicle weight is the combined
weight of the vehicle, driver, all passen-
gers and their luggage, cargo, hitch, trailer
tongue load and other optional equip-
ment.
3. The front or rear axle weight must not
exceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR) shown on the vehicle identifica-
tion plate (see page 8-1). It is possible
that your towing package does not ex-
ceed the GVWR but exceeds the GAWR.
Improper trailer loading and/or too much
luggage in the trunk can overload the
rear axle. Redistribute the load and check
the axle weight again.
NOTE:
If you tow a trailer or vehicle, your car will
require more frequent maintenance due to
the additional load. See "Maintenance Un-
der Severe Usage Conditions" on page 5-4.

CAUTION:
o
Never connect a trailer brake system di-
rectly to the vehicle brake system.
o
When towing a trailer on steep grades (in
excess of 12%) pay close attention to the
engine coolant temperature gauge to
ensure the engine does not overheat. If
the needle of the coolant temperature
gauge moves across the dial towards
"
H" (HOT), pull over and stop as soon as
it is safe to do so, and allow the engine to
idle until it cools down. You may proceed
once the engine has cooled sufficiently.

Tongue load
4. The maximum permissible overhang of
the coupling point is 570 mm.
(ATOS VAN : 568mm)
Tongue loads can be increased or decreased
by redistributing the load in the trailer. This can
be verified by checking the total weight of the
loaded trailer and then checking the load on the
tongue.
