Acura 2011 RDX User Manual download pdf (Page 401)

Your vehicle has been designed

primarily to carry passengers and

their cargo. You can also use it to tow

a trailer if you carefully observe the

load limits, use the proper

equipment, and follow the guidelines

in this section.

Break-In Period

Avoid towing a trailer during your

vehicle's first 600 miles (1,000 km)

(see page 352).

Be sure to read the Off-Highway

Driving Guidelines section on page

405 if you plan to tow off paved

surfaces.

Exceeding any load limit or

improperly loading your vehicle

and trailer can cause a crash in

which you can be seriously hurt

or killed.

Check the loading of your

vehicle and trailer carefully

before starting to drive.

Load Limits

Total Trailer Weight: The maximum

allowable weight of the trailer and

everything in or on it must not

exceed 1,500 lbs (680 kg). Towing a

load that is too heavy can seriously

affect your vehicle's handling and

performance. It can also damage the

engine and drivetrain.
