TOW HITCH
Make sure the relevant safety warnings
and cautions have been read and
understood before towing a trailer.
The fitting of a tow hitch is required for
towing with the tow hitch receiver.
The following tow hitch dimensions must
be adhered to:
- The maximum recommended length
is 6.9 in (175 mm).
- The maximum recommended ball
height is:
- Coil suspension: -0.6 in (-15 mm).

become a projectile potentially causing
serious injury or death.
If in any doubt about the fitment of a tow
hitch, consult a retailer/authorized
