therefore, objects south of the vehicle may cause
satellite reception interruptions. Satellite signals are
more likely to be blocked by tall buildings and

following circumstances:•In a location with an obstruction to the south of
your vehicle.•In tunnels•On the lower level of a multi-tiered road•Large items carried on the roof rack

Trailer lights and equipment must comply with federal, state, province/territory, and
local regulations. Check with your local trailer sales or rental agency for the
requirements in the area where you plan to tow.
