5. Trailer length measurement. The trailer
length is the distance between the
trailer hitch ball and the rear of the
trailer. The maximum length that the
system can support is 33 ft (10.1 m).
6. Enter the length of trailer. The default
setting is 18 ft (5.5 m). Toggling up or
down using the menu buttons
increases or decreases the
measurement by 1 ft (0.3 m). Select a
length that is equal to or within 1 ft
(0.3 m) of the actual measured length.
For example, if the actual measure
length is 23 ft (7 m), toggle the length
in the menu to 24 ft (7.2 m). The
system setup saves when you enter the
length of the trailer.
Note: If the trailer is a bike rack or cargo
rack with electrical lighting, enter a length
of around 3 ft (1 m). Cross traffic alert
remains on for trailers with a length of 3 ft
(1 m) or less.
Note: The system requires proper
measurement and measure entry to function
properly.
SELECTING A TRAILER
When you connect a trailer to your vehicle,
the trailer set up menu appears in the
touchscreen. This menu allows you to set
up a new trailer or choose from a
previously set up trailer. A warning
message appears and the system turns off
if you do not choose or add a new trailer.
Note: The warning message may not
appear until your vehicle reaches 22 mph
(35 km/h).
