Note: When towing a trailer, the service life of the vehicle and its efficiency are reduced, because. increases the load on the components involved in the transmission of torque (from engine to tires).
In this regard, it is not allowed to tow a trailer at the initial stage of vehicle operation with a mileage of less than 800 km! During the first 800 km of the first towing of the trailer, the speed of more than 80 km/h is not allowed!
Comply with legal requirements for maximum trailer towing weight (see specs).
Before towing, make sure that both the trailer and the car itself are in good technical condition. Use only certified coupling devices, the installation of which should be entrusted to experienced specialists. Similar requirements apply to the connection of the brake system and signal lighting devices of the trailer.
Attention: Vehicles with a Z 20 LEH engine must not be fitted with a trailer hitch!
When towing, try to choose the speed and other driving parameters based on the weight of the trailer. Remember that a trailer adds to the actual weight of the vehicle, and do not exceed the maximum permitted vehicle weight and maximum rear axle load.
