Trailer towing
E00610000518
In order to tow a trailer with your vehicle, when hav-
ing a trailer towing device mounted that meets all
relevant regulations in your area, consult a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
The regulations concerning the towing of a trailer
may differ from country to country. You are ad-
vised to obey the regulations in each area.
CAUTION
l
Danger of Accident!
A towing bar should be fitted according
to MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines.
Maximum towable weight with brake
and maximum trailer-nose weight
Never exceed the maximum towable weight with
brake and the maximum trailer-nose weight as lis-
ted in the specifications.
(Refer to page 9-08.)
If you tow a trailer at an altitude of more than
1,000 m above sea-level, reduce your weight by
10 % of the gross combination weight for every in-
crease of 1,000 m above sea-level, as the engine out-
put is lowered owing to decrease in atmospheric
pressure.
