                                4-1. Before driving185
               ● Reversing with a trailer attached is difficult and requires practice. Grip the
                bottom of the steering wheel and move your hand to the left to move the
                trailer to the left. Move your hand to the right to move the trailer to right. (This
                is generally opposite to reversing without a trailer attached.) Avoid sharp or
                prolonged turning. Have someone gue yid ou when reversing to reduce the
                risk of an accident.
               ● As stopping distance is increased when towing a trailer, vehicle-to vehicle dis-
                tance should be increased. For each 10 mph (16 km/h) of speed, allow at least
                one vehicle and trailer length.
               ● Avoid sudden braking as you may skid, resulting in the trailer jackknifing and a
                loss of vehicle control. This is especially true on wet or slippery surfaces.
               ● Avoid jerky starts or sudden acceleration.
               ● Avoid jerky steering and sharp turns, and slow down before making turn.
               ● Note that when making a turn, the trailer wheels will be closer than the vehicle
                wheels to the inside of the turn. Compensate by making a wider than normal4
                turning radius.
               ● Slow down before making a turn, in cross winds, on wet or slippery surfaces,

                Increasing vehicle speed can destabilize the trailer.g
               ● Take care when passing other vehicles. Passing requires considerable dis-
                tance. After passing a vehicle, do not forget the length of your trailer, and be
                sure you have plenty of room before changing lanes.
               ● To maintain engine braking effcyici aennd charging system performance
                when using engine braking, do not put the transmission in D. If in the M mode,
                the transmission shift range position must be in 4 or lower. (→P. 198)
               ● Instability happens more frequently when descending steep or long downhill
                grades. Before descending, slow down and downshift. Do not make sudden
                downshifts while descending steep or long downhill grades.
               ● Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or applying the brakes too fre-
                quently. This could cause the brakes to overheat and result in reduced braking
                efficiency.
               ● Due to the added load of the trailer, your vehicle’s engine may overheat on hot
                days (at temperatures over 85°F [30°C]) when driving up a long or steep
                grade. If the engine coolant temperature gauge indicates overheating, imme-
                diately turn off the air conditioning (if in use), pull your vehicle off the road and
                stop in a safe spot. (→P. 584)
