Note: You can calibrate within the Pro Trailer Backup Assist or Trailer Reverse Guidance system.
Find an area where you can safely drive forward and turn le or right to calibrate the system. An open
parking lot is an ideal place to perform the calibration. During calibration,
the system determines the hitch position and trailer length. Drive straight at
approximately 2-9 mph (4-15 km/h) to align the trailer behind your vehicle.
CALIBRATION
The touchscreen provides you with instructions and tells you when the
system is ready for you to turn. Turn le or right whenever you are ready
and in a safe turning area. Calibrating a trailer with the sticker setup
requires a straight drive and turn followed by another straight drive
and turn. Longer trailers could require a 180° turn. Some trailers could
require you to drive straight then turn multiple times before calibration
is complete.

When the calibration is complete, the touchscreen displays a message that
calibration is complete. The feature is now ready to use.
