STARTING AND OPERATING

Consider the following items when computing the weight
on the rear axle of the vehicle:
The tongue weight of the trailer.
The weight of any other type of cargo or equipment put
in or on your vehicle.
The weight of the driver and all passengers.
NOTE:
Remember that everything put into or on the trailer adds
to the load on your vehicle. Also, additional
factory-installed options or dealer-installed options must
be considered as part of the total load on your vehicle.
Refer to the Tire And Loading Information Placard for the
maximum combined weight of occupants and cargo for
your vehicle.

Feature Overview
Trailer Reverse Steering Control (TRSC) is a feature that
will assist the driver when backing up a trailer. By turning
the knob located on the center stack, you can more
accurately control the direction the trailer will go.
The driver controls the accelerator and the brake while
steering with the use of the Trailer Reverse Steering
Control knob. The trailer is steered according to the
direction the knob is turned.
This feature will also allow the driver to back up a vehicle
and trailer in a straight line when the knob is rested in its
center position.
Minimal setup is required to use this feature.
Set Up:
To use the system, hitch your trailer to the truck and
ensure all electrical wiring is connected
The system will automatically calibrate an attached trailer
during normal forward driving with no additional action
needed from the driver. If the vehicle has not had enough
time to automatically calibrate after connecting a trailer,
you will see a “Calibrate Trailer” message in the
instrument cluster when pressing the TRSC button to
activate the system. If this is the case, perform the
following maneuver to calibrate the trailer:
Drive forward at least 100 ft (30 m), perform a 90 degree
turn and return to a straight position for at least another
100 ft (30 m). Perform another 90 degree turn, followed
by another straight drive of at least 100 ft (30 m). Check
that the system has calibrated by pushing the TRSC
button.
NOTE:
The 90 degree turns could be in either the left or right
direction.
