Driving should the vehicle weight ratings per axle or combination truck and trailer exceed the weight ratings listed on the Safety Compliance Certification label located on the driver's side door. When connecting a trailer hitch: 1. Turn off the air suspension switch. 2. Connect the trailer. 3. Turn the air suspension back on. Adjusting an equalizing hitch so the rear bumper of the vehicle is lower or higher than it was unloaded will defeat the function of the load equalizing hitch and may cause unpredictable handling. Driving while towing a trailer Speed control (if equipped) may not work properly while towing on long, steep grades. Driving with an automatic transmission: • use D, 1 or 2 rather than D while towing up or down steep hills • anticipate stops and brake gradually.
