11.   The weight of this vehicle is near the 5000 lb class III rating limitations. Some models, depending on options, may exceed this 5000 lb rating. Be sure to confirm the weight of your individual vehicle before towing. For 2001 the Aventa II is now rated at 10,000 lbs and should be used for these applications.  
12.  Non-24" spaced attachment tabs. Requires the use of an adapter to utilize a car mounted tow bar. See the Adapters section of the Accessories. Tow bar adapters are not to be used with vehicles weighing over 5000 lbs  
13.  Removable tab baseplates work best with motorhome mount tow bars. They may be used with Ambassador or Acclaim tow bars when the tabs have 24" space or the Adventurer tow bar when the tables have 24" to 40" spacing. The only compatible adapters are the BX8833 or BX88151. Other adapters will not attach.
15.  Specific dinghy towing restrictions apply. These may include specific towing speeds and distances. Confirm the towability and pre-towing procedures of your vehicle with the owner's manual or contact the vehicle manufacturer for specific towing procedures.
15.  License plate bracket may need to be relocated.
42.  Vehicles may accumulate miles when flat towing. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual.
47. The BX88152 adapter can NOT be used with this baseplate.
