Nissan Murano: Towing safety / Pre-towing tips
- Be certain your vehicle maintains a level
position when a loaded and/or unloaded
trailer is hitched.Do not drive the
vehicle if it has an abnormal nose-up or
nose-down condition; check for improper
tongue load,overload,worn suspension
or other possible causes of either
condition.
- Always secure items in the trailer to prevent
load shift while driving.
- Keep the cargo load as low as possible
in the trailer to keep the trailer center of
gravity low.
- Load the trailer so approximately 60%
of the trailer load is in the front half and
40% is in the back half. Also make sure
the load is balanced side to side.
- Check your hitch, trailer tire pressure,
vehicle tire pressure, trailer light operation,
and trailer wheel lug nuts every
time you attach a trailer to the vehicle.
- Be certain your rearview mirrors conform
to all federal, state or local regulations.
If not, install any mirrors required
for towing before driving the vehicle.
- Determine the overall height of the vehicle
and trailer so the required clearance
is known.
CAUTION
When splicing into the vehicle electrical
system, a commercially available
power-type module/converter must be
used to provide power for all trailer
lighting...
In order to gain skill and an understanding
of the vehicle’s behavior, you should practice
turning, stopping and backing up in an
area which is free from traffic...
