238 Driving and operation
The actual caravan/trailer load plus the
actual gross weight of the towing vehicle
must not exceed the maximum permitted
towing weight. For example, if the
permitted gross vehicle weight is utilised,
the trailer/caravan load must only be used
until the maximum permitted towing
weight is reached. The maximum
permitted towing weight is shown on the
identification plate, see page 308.
Coupling socket load
The coupling socket load is the load
exerted by the trailer/caravan on the
coupling ball. It can be varied by changing
the weight distribution when loading the
trailer/caravan.
The maximum permissible coupling socket
load (75 kg) is specified on the towing
equipment identification plate and in the
vehicle documents. Always aim for the
maximum load, especially in the case of
heavy caravans/trailers. The coupling
socket load should never fall below 25 kg.
When measuring the coupling socket load,
make sure that the drawbar of the loaded
trailer/caravan is at the same height as it
will be when the trailer/caravan is coupled
with the towing vehicle loaded. Particularly
important for trailers/caravans with
tandem axle.
Rear axle load during towing
With a trailer coupled and the towing
vehicle fully loaded (including all
occupants), the permissible rear axle load
(see identification plate or vehicle
documents) may be exceeded by 65 kg
and the permissible gross vehicle weight
by 45 kg for the Hatch. For the Estate, the
permissible rear axle load may be
exceeded by 60 kg and the permissible
gross vehicle weight by 30 kg. If the
permissible rear axle load is exceeded a
maximum speed of 60 mph (100 km/h)
applies (50 mph / 80 km/h if approved for
use as a commercial vehicle). If national
regulations specify a lower maximum
speed for vehicles towing a trailer, this
must be observed.
