Note: During calibration, the system
determines the trailer length. The system
supports trailer lengths of 6–20 ft
(1.83–6.1 m) distance from the hitch point
to the center of the axle or axles. The
system is designed to work with drawbars
(tow ball mounts) that have a license plate
to hitch ball center measurement of 10–17 in
(26–43 cm) when installed. Do not use
drawbars or trailers that have a length
outside of this range as the system
performance degrades and could cause
improper system function.
Note: The touchscreen shows if you are
going too slow or fast. Calibration pauses if
the speed is outside the required range of
2–9 mph (4–15 km/h).
Note: Do not calibrate the system at night.
The calibration process may not be
completed, or the system may not work as
expected.
SWITCHING TRAILER BACKUP
ASSISTANCE ON AND OFF
Press the button and use the touchscreen
to select the connected trailer.
Note: A trailer must be configured to use
trailer backup assistance. See Configuring
the Trailer (page 345).
Note: If you use the steering wheel when
using trailer backup assistance, the system
turns off and a message displays in the
touchscreen.
Note: If the trailer was connected just prior
to turning the system on, you may need to
drive forward to initialize the system. Follow
the instructions on the touchscreen to
activate the system.
