Warning: Ensure your trailer and tie down straps are properly rated for your vehicle weight. Follow all warnings and precautions listed by the manufacturers. Failure to do so may cause serious injury or death.

1. Ensure your trailer is clean and free of any major debris.

2. Always practice safe riding by wearing the required safety gear. Reference your Owner’s Manual for proper riding equipment.

3. Safely drive the vehicle onto the trailer. Warning: Do not transport the vehicle in a reverse direction on the trailer.

4. Place the vehicle in PARK and verify the PARK position is displayed in the gauge.

5. Slowly release the brake pedal and ensure the vehicle does not roll.
