Towing a trailer
Trailer hitch attachment
Trailer hitch attachments are available as
accessories. These are designed for a max-
imum trailer weight of 2000 lbs. (900 kg).
Use only the electrical trailer hitch socket
provided in the spare wheel area in the lug-
gage compartment for connecting the trailer
electrics.
Trailer weight
Maximum recommended trailer weights for
different gradients, with a view to comfort
and drivability for manual and automatic
cars, are shown on the drawing.
Make sure you are familiar with the law
regarding speed limits for towing, maxi-
mum trailer weights, trailer-braking
requirements, and also any special
driving-licence provisions
(see also page 227).
The specified trailer weights and gradients
assume that the journey starts at the hill and
therefore apply only to short periods.
WARNING
Always undo the expansion tank filler cap
carefully, releasing the pressure and any
vapor before removing the cap com-
pletely.
NOTE
Use only a genuine Saab trailer hitch,
since other models can damage the car’s
bodywork and electrical system (or in
Canada, a high quality hitch designed to
fit the car, available from a trailer hitch
specialist).
Consult an authorized Saab dealer for
guidance on how to connect the trailer
hitch electrical system.
WARNING
When towing a trailer, do not attempt to
negotiate a hill having a gradient in
excess of 15%. The weight distribution
over the front wheels of the car will be
insufficient to prevent wheelspin, making
further progress impossible.
In addition, the parking brake may not
always be able to hold the car and trailer
securely, with the result that the wheels
can start to slide downhill.
