CAUTION

•

The maximum trailer weights listed are
only applicable for altitudes up to
3280 ft (1,000 m) above sea level.
With increasing altitude the engine
power and therefore the car's climbing
ability are impaired because of the
reduced air density, so the maximum
trailer weight has to be reduced
accordingly. The weight of the car and
trailer must be reduced by 10% for
every further 3280 ft (1,000 m) (or
part thereof).
