Jeep Wrangler: Towing Requirements / Towing Requirements — Tires
- Proper tire inflation pressures are essential
to the safe and satisfactory operation of your
vehicle.
- Check the trailer tires for proper tire inflation
pressures before trailer usage.
- Check for signs of tire wear or visible tire
damage before towing a trailer.
- Replacing tires with a higher load carrying
capacity will not increase the vehicle's GVWR
and GAWR limits.
To promote proper break-in of your new vehicle
drivetrain components, the following guidelines
are recommended:
WARNING!
Improper towing can lead to a collision...
Do not interconnect the hydraulic brake
system or vacuum system of your vehicle
with that of the trailer. This could cause inadequate
braking and possible personal injury...
Other information:
TCS monitors the amount of wheel spin of each
of the driven wheels. If wheel spin is detected,
the TCS may apply brake pressure to the
spinning wheel(s) and/or reduce engine power
to provide enhanced acceleration and stability.
A feature of the TCS, Brake Limited Differential
(BLD), functions similarly to a limited slip
differential and controls the wheel spin across a
driven axle...
The engine is equipped with a glow plug
preheating system. If the instructions in this
manual are followed, the engine should start in
all conditions and no type of starting fluid
should be used.
WARNING!
Do not leave children or animals inside
parked vehicles in hot weather...
