Operation Manual
TRAILER SWAY CONTROL
If the trailer begins to sway the stability
control warning lamp flashes in the
information display. The system applies
the brakes to the individual wheels and
reduces engine torque to aid vehicle
stability.
Stop your vehicle as soon as it is safe to
do so. Check the vertical weight on the tow
ball and trailer load distribution. See
Capacities and Specifications (page
275). See Capacities and Specifications
(page 275).
Note: This feature does not prevent trailer
sway, but reduces it once it begins.
Note: This feature cannot stop all trailers
from swaying.
Note: In some cases, if your vehicle speed
is too high, the system may turn on multiple
times, gradually reducing your vehicle speed.
TOW BALL
Retractable Tow Ball - Manually
Operated
Only move the tow ball arm with your
hand. Never use your foot or auxiliary tools
as damage to the mechanism may result.
You can turn the retractable tow ball arm
through 90 degrees using the handwheel
A.
A 13-pin trailer socket B is provided
underneath the rear bumper next to the
tow ball arm C.
Swivelling the Tow Ball In
WARNINGS
Keep your hands away from the
handwheel as it rotates during the
locking process.
You will hear a warning tone when
the tow ball arm is not in one of the
locked positions. If you do not hear
the tone when moving the tow ball arm,
do not use the tow bar and have it checked
by an authorised dealer.
Before retracting the ball neck into its
stowage position always unhitch the trailer
or dismantle load carriers and their
attachments. Dismantle attachments for
tracking stabilization. Remove the plug for
the trailer power supply and the adapter
from the socket. Failure to do so may result
in damage to the bumper.
