Subaru Forester: Connecting a trailer / Trailer lights
CAUTION
Direct splicing or other improper
connection of trailer lights may
damage your vehicle’s electrical
system and cause a malfunction of
your vehicle’s lighting system.
Connection of trailer lights to your vehicle’s
electrical system requires modifications to
the vehicle’s lighting circuit to increase its
capacity and accommodate wiring
changes. To ensure the trailer lights are
connected properly, please consult your
SUBARU dealer. Check for proper operation
of the turn signals and the brake lights
each time you connect a trailer to your
vehicle.
WARNING
Never tow a trailer when the temporary
spare tire is used. The temporary
spare tire is not designed to sustain
the towing load. Use of the temporary
spare tire when towing can result
in failure of the spare tire and/or less
stability of the vehicle...
