Towing Ford Fiesta

Bought a 2018 Ford Fiesta with automatic transmission to tow behind my motorhome. The manual says to disconnect ground terminal of battery. Anyone else towing a Fiesta and what are you doing about disconnecting the battery ground?

I installed one of these "backwards" ie so the battery went to my add-in 12v adapter for my brakebuddy and not the car: https://www.amazon.ca/Ampper-Battery-Disconnect-Isolator-Vehicle/dp/B07413JWLD/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?crid=...

I had a 2012 Focus with the same issue. I have roadmaster equipment and they installed a button in the car that activated a solenoid that connected and disconnected the negative battery cable.
