Trailer Memory
The trailer steering system will automatically retain the
calibration of the previous five trailers connected, so
recalibration will not be necessary when hooking up a
previously calibrated trailer.
To store a trailer to memory, calibrate the trailer and
then allow the vehicle to be off for a minimum of 2 min-
utes. The next time the vehicle is started the trailer sys-
tem will attempt to identify the attached trailer. If suc-
cessful, the TRSC system can then be activated.
NOTE:
•
If the trailer is not identified, drive forward to align
the trailer to the vehicle in a straight line, 0 degree
trailer angle, and shift to PARK. Ensure that there is
no camera feed displayed on the radio screen and
wait for up to 10 seconds for the system to attempt
to identify the trailer. Press TRSC button to activate
the feature.
•
Trailers may look different during day and night con-
ditions. In such cases, the trailer may need to
recalibrate.
•
Some trailers (such as boat trailers) will need to
recalibrate while loaded and unloaded.
•
The system may not detect a trailer in low light con-
ditions. In sunny conditions, the performance may
be degraded as shadows pass over the trailer.
•
The driver is always responsible for safe operation
of truck and trailer.
•
The driver is always in control of the truck as well as
the trailer and is responsible for controlling the
accelerator and brakes.
•
The system may not function when the camera lens
is blocked, blurred (covered with water, snow, ice,
dirt, etc) and will not work unless the tailgate is
upright and fully latched.
Trailer Sticker
As there are many variations of trailers on the market
you may encounter one that is particularly difficult to
use with the TRSC. High-contrast stickers have been
provided to be placed on the trailer for when this sce-
nario is encountered. By applying these stickers to your
trailer, it aids the vision system with learning the trailer
by providing high contrast features to track in the rear
camera image. The following are guidelines for attach-
ing the stickers to your trailer:
