When You Are Ready to Leave After
Parking on a Hill
Maintenance When Trailer Towing
Your vehicle will need service more often when you’re
pulling a trailer. See Scheduled Maintenance on
page 6-4 for more information. Things that are especially
important in trailer operation are automatic transmission
fluid (don’t overfill), engine oil, axle lubricant, drive
belt, cooling system and brake system. Each of these is
covered in this manual, and the Index will help you
find them quickly. If you’re trailering, it’s a good idea to
review this information before you start your trip.
1.
Apply your regular brakes and hold the pedal down
while you:
•

shift into a gear, and
release the parking brake.

Let up on the brake pedal.
Check periodically to see that all hitch nuts and bolts
are tight.
Drive slowly until the trailer is clear of the chocks.
Stop and have someone pick up and store the
chocks.
Engine Cooling When Trailer Towing
Your cooling system may temporarily overheat during
severe operating conditions. See Engine Overheating on
page 5-27.
