NOTICE
Only use a towbar that has been
approved for your car. We recom-
mend that you entrust towbar installa-
tion to an authorised Saab workshop,
which can also provide important
information such as trailer weight.
Your authorised Saab workshop has
information on how the towbar is to be
installed and whether other measures
must be undertaken that could affect
the cooling system or other equipment
We recommend that you contact a
Saab dealer for guidance on how to
connect a trailer hitch.
Exercise care when driving on uneven
roads or against the curb if the car is
heavily laden. This particularly applies
to cars with 17" wheels.
