Tires, Wheels and Loading Driving while you tow When towing a trailer: • To ensure proper break-in of powertrain components, do not trailer tow during the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) of a new vehicle. • To ensure proper break-in of powertrain components during the first 500 miles (800 km) of trailer towing, drive no faster than 70 mph (113 km/h) with no full throttle starts. • Consult your local motor vehicle speed regulations for towing a trailer. • Turn off the speed control. The speed control may shut off automatically when you are towing on long, steep grades. • To eliminate excessive automatic transmission shifting, use a lower gear. This will also assist in transmission cooling. For additional information, refer to Automatic transmission operation in the Driving chapter. • Under extreme conditions with large frontal trailers, high outside temperatures and highway speeds, the coolant gauge may indicate higher than normal coolant temperatures. If this occurs, reduce speed until the coolant temperature returns to the normal range. Refer to Gauges in the Instrument Cluster chapter. • Anticipate stops and brake gradually. • Do not exceed the GCWR rating or transmission damage may occur. Servicing after towing If you tow a trailer for long distances, your vehicle will require more frequent service intervals. Refer to your scheduled maintenance information for more information. Trailer towing tips • The trailer tongue weight should be 10–15% of the loaded trailer weight. • Practice turning, stopping and backing-up before starting on a trip to get the feel of the vehicle-trailer combination. When turning, make wider turns so the trailer wheels will clear curbs and other obstacles. • Allow more distance for stopping with a trailer attached. • To aid in engine/transmission cooling and A/C efficiency during hot weather while stopped in traffic, place the gearshift lever in P (Park) (automatic transmission) or neutral (manual transmissions). • After you have traveled 50 miles (80 km), thoroughly check your hitch, electrical connections and trailer wheel lug nuts. 156 2010 Ranger (ran) Owners Guide, 2nd Printing USA(fus)
