(GAWR) shown on the vehicle identi-
fication  plate  (see  page  8-2).  It  is
possible that  your  towing package
does  not   exceed   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.

Before towing,  check hitch and  safety
chain  connections  as well  as  proper
operation of  the  trailer running  lights,
brake lights, and  turn signals.

and  electrical  charging  performance,
do not tow a trailer with the transaxle in
fifth gear (manual  transaxle).
