Other information:
Your vehicle is designed and intended to
be used primarily as a passenger-carrying
vehicle. Towing a trailer puts additional
loads on your vehicle’s engine, drivetrain,
brakes, tires and suspension and has an
adverse effect on fuel economy.
If you do decide to tow a trailer, your safety
and satisfaction depend upon proper use
of correct equipment and cautious operation
of your vehicle...
The cargo area is equipped with several
tie-down hooks so that cargo can be
secured with a cargo net or ropes.
When using the tie-down hooks, turn them
down out of the storing recesses.
CAUTION
The cargo tie-down hooks are designed
only for securing light cargo...
