Issue 03 – 08/12/20 PART NUMBER: L101SSJ001 FORESTER TRAILER HITCH This card should be stored in the vehicle glove box and handed over with the vehicle if sold.NOTICE:Electric Trailer Brakes: Customers towing over 1,000 lbs and using a trailer with electric brakes must purchase and install an electric brake controller and harness. The harness connects the electric brake controller to a vehicle connector above the driverโs side footwell kick panel. The electric brake controller and harness are not available from Subaru
. 1. Do not drill, cut, weld or otherwise modify the Trailer Hitch.2. If Trailer Hitch is removed, a bumper beam MUST be reinstalled. Failure to reinstall a bumper beam after removal of the trailer hitch will negatively affect vehicle rear crash performance. Please contact your SUBARU
dealer. 3. Never exceed the maximum towing capacity and maximum tongue load for the trim level detailed on the trailer hitch. It could cause personal injury and/or vehicle damage. 5. When towing, total vehicle weight must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). Also the load distribution on each axle must not exceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). The GVWR and GAWR for your vehicle can be found on the “Certification label” which is located on the left side center pillar of the vehicle.6. After the first 600 miles, please consult with Subaru
dealer to recheck the tightness of trailer hitch bolts and nuts.7. For models equipped with BSD (Blind Spot Detection) and RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert) driving support systems, when towing a trailer press BSD/RCTA OFF switch to deactivate the systems. The system may not operate properly due to blocked radar waves. For details about BSD/RCTA OFF switch, refer to the ownerโs manual โBSD/RCTA OFF switchโ.8. For models equipped with RAB (Reverse Automatic Braking) system, please consult with SUBARU
dealer when towing a trailer.9. For further information, read vehicle ownerโs manual or consult your dealer or dealerโs service department.10. Subaru
