Pulling a Trailer
Buick Verano / Buick Verano Owners Manual / Driving and Operating / Towing / Driving Characteristics and Towing Tips / Pulling a Trailer
Here are some important points:
- . There are many laws, including speed limit restrictions that apply to trailering. Check for legal requirements with state or provincial police.
- . Do not tow a trailer at all during the first 1 600 km (1,000 mi) the new vehicle is driven. The engine or other parts could be damaged.
- . During the first 800 km (500 mi) that a trailer is towed, do not drive over 80 km/h (50 mph) and do not make starts at full throttle. This reduces wear on the vehicle.
- . Vehicles with automatic transmissions can tow in D (Drive) but M (Manual Mode) is recommended. See Manual Mode for more information. Use a lower gear if the transmission shifts too often. . Use the cruise control when towing.
- . Obey speed limit restrictions. Do not drive faster than the maximum posted speed for trailers, or no more than 90 km/h (55 mph), to reduce wear on the vehicle.
