Nissan Murano: Towing safety / Sway control device
Sudden maneuvers, wind gusts, and buffeting
caused by other vehicles can affect
trailer handling. Sway control devices may
be used to help control these affects. If you
choose to use one, contact a reputable
trailer hitch supplier to make sure the sway
control device will work with the vehicle,
hitch, trailer and the trailer’s brake system.
Follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer for installing and using the
sway control device.
This type of hitch is also called a “loadleveling”
or “equalizing” hitch. A set of bars
attach to the ball mount and to the trailer
to distribute the tongue weight (hitch
weight) of your trailer...
Class I trailer hitch equipment (receiver, ball
mount and hitch ball) can be used to tow
trailers of a maximum weight of 2,000 lbs.
(907 kg).
Tire pressures

vehicle tires to the recommended
cold tire pressure indicated
on the Tire and Loading Information
label...

NOTE:
Tow hitches are available as an accessory
for this vehicle. If a tow hitch is installed,
the liftgate electronic control
unit (ECU) needs to be replaced with an
ECU programmed with towing logic for
the Motion-Activated Liftgate to function
properly...
