the engine is turned off, the battery will
discharge.
If the vehicle battery is running low, the
electrical connection with the trailer will be
automatically cut.
Loading a trailer
Technically permissible maximum trailer
weight and vertical load on the coupling
device
The technically permissible maximum trailer
weight is the weight that the vehicle can tow
. The vertical load on the coupling load
is exerted vertically from above on the tow
hitch of the towing bracket page 345.
The information on the maximum trailer
weight and vertical load on the coupling de-
vice contained in the type plate of the towing
bracket are experimental values only. The
correct figures for your specific model,
which may be lower than these figures, are
given in the vehicle documentation. The in-
formation in the vehicle documentation
takes precedence at all times.
To promote safety while driving, CUPRA rec-
ommends making the most of the maximum
vertical load technically permissible on the
coupling device page 296. An insufficient
vertical load has a negative influence on the
behaviour of both the vehicle and trailer.
The vertical load increases the weight on the
rear axle, reducing the vehicle's carrying ca-
pacity.
Gross combination weight of the towing
vehicle and trailer
The gross combination weight is the actual
weight of the loaded vehicle plus the actual
weight of the loaded trailer.
In some countries trailers are classified into
distinct categories. CUPRA recommends ob-
taining information from a specialised work-
shop regarding which type of trailer is most
suitable for your vehicle.
Trailer loading
The weight of the towing vehicle and trailer
must be balanced. In order to do this, the
load must be as close as possible to the max-
imum vertical load technically permissible on
the coupling point, and it must be evenly dis-
tributed between the back and front of the
trailer:
Distribute loads in the trailer so that heavy
objects are as near to the axle as possible or
above it.
Secure the trailer load properly.
Tyre pressure
Set the tyre pressure of the trailer tyres in ac-
cordance with the trailer manufacturer's rec-
ommendations.
When towing a trailer, inflate the tyres of the
towing vehicle with the maximum allowable
pressure page 322.
WARNING
If the maximum permissible axle weight,
the maximum load technically permissible
on the coupling point, the maximum au-
thorised vehicle weight or the gross combi-
nation weight of the towing vehicle and
trailer are exceeded, accidents and serious
injuries may occur.
Never exceed the values indicated!
The actual weight on the front and rear
axles must never exceed the maximum
permissible axle weight. The weight on the
front and rear axles must never exceed the
maximum permissible weight.
WARNING
A shift in weight could jeopardize the sta-
bility and security of the towing vehicle and
trailer, which could lead to accidents and
serious injuries.
Always load the trailer correctly.
Always secure the load properly using
belts or straps that are suitable and in good
condition.
