Troubleshooting
The Trailer Camera calibration may
take longer than expected or not
calibrate if:
.The vehicle is driven too fast during
calibration. Speed should be
maintained below 50 km/h
(31 mph).
.The vehicle is not driven straight
during calibration. Steering should
be maintained as straight as
possible, excessive steering during
calibration may extend
calibration time.
.The calibration is attempted in low
light conditions. Calibration should
be attempted when there is enough
light.
.The calibration is attempted during
poor weather conditions. Calibration
during conditions such as snow or
heavy rain should be avoided.
.The road surface is not ideal for
calibration. Calibration should be
attempted on an alternate road
surface.
.The accessory trailer cameras are
swapped at the hitch connector.
Ensure that the camera mounted to
the rear of the trailer is connected
to the rear trailer camera input.
.The accessory trailer camera is
mounted, angled or rotated outside
of the defined mounting location
(see camera installation
instructions).
.The vehicle or accessory trailer
camera is obstructed by dirt or
debris. Check cameras and clean as
needed.
.The accessory trailer camera is
mounted such that obstructions are
visible in the view (spare tire, bike/
cargo racks, etc.). Calibration should
be attempted with obstruction
temporarily removed. Shadows
resulting from driving toward the
sun may be perceived as
obstructions, attempt to calibrate
driving in an alternate direction if
possible.
.The entered trailer profile
dimensions are inaccurate.
Measurements are expected to be
made to the nearest 1 inch (25 mm). Enter accurate
measurements and reattempt
calibration.
Distortion or inaccuracy may be
observed in a rear trailer camera
view if:
.The accessory trailer camera is
mounted, angled or rotated outside
of the defined mounting location
(see camera installation
instructions).
.The entered trailer profile
dimensions are inaccurate.
Measurements are expected to be
made to the nearest 1 inch
(25 mm). Enter accurate
measurements and reattempt
calibration.
The preview may not display or the
wrong preview may be displayed if:
.The accessory cameras are not
recognized. Ensure that the
accessory camera(s) are connected
and power cycle the vehicle.
.The accessory trailer cameras are
swapped at the hitch connector.
Ensure that the accessory camera(s)
are connected to the correct camera
input.

Special note regarding trailers with
outboard wheels:
Performance for Rear Trailer Guidance
Lines and Trailer Length Indicator
Overlays are optimized when the
entered value for trailer width reflects
the total width of the trailer including
outboard wheels. If the trailer box
width is entered:
.The Rear Trailer Guidance Lines will
appear narrower than the actual
path of the trailer.
.The Trailer Length Indicator
Overlays will appear closer and
possibly overlap with the trailer.
Park Assist
The vehicle may be equipped with
Rear Park Assist (RPA) or Front and
Rear Park Assist (FRPA). Under
certain conditions, the Park Assist
system can assist the driver during
backing and parking maneuvers when
the vehicle is driven at no more than
9 km/h (6 mph). An illuminated
indicator in the Park Assist button
indicates the system is ready.
Sensors located in the bumpers
measure the distance between the
vehicle and objects using sonar
technology. These sensors are
designed to detect certain objects up
to 1.8 m (6 ft) behind and 1.3 m (4 ft)
in front of your vehicle that are taller
than 25 cm (10 in).
Different environmental conditions
may affect whether and how far the
Park Assist system can detect objects.
Keep the sensors clean of mud, dirt,
snow, ice, and slush; and clean
sensors after a car wash in freezing
temperatures. Sensors that are not
clean may not detect objects or may
cause the system to alert when not
required.

Trailer Weight
{Warning
Never exceed the towing capacity
for your vehicle.
Safe trailering requires monitoring the
weight, speed, altitude, road grades,
outside temperature, dimensions of
the front of the trailer, and how
frequently the vehicle is used to tow a
trailer.
Trailering Weight Ratings
When towing a trailer, the combined
weight of the vehicle, vehicle contents,
trailer, and trailer contents must be
below all of the maximum weight
ratings for the vehicle, including:
.GCWR: Gross Combined Weight
Rating
.GVWR: Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
.Maximum Trailer Weight Rating
.GAWR-RR: Gross Axle Weight
Rating-Rear
.Maximum Trailer Tongue Weight
Rating See
“Weight-Distributing Hitch
Adjustment ”under Towing Equipment
0 338 to determine if equalizer bars
are required to obtain the maximum
trailer weight rating.
See “Trailer Brakes ”under Towing
Equipment 0338 to determine if
brakes are required based on your
trailer's weight.
The only way to be sure the weight is
not exceeding any of these ratings is
to weigh the tow vehicle and trailer
combination, fully loaded for the trip,
getting individual weights for each of
these items.
A trailering information label on the
driver's side door B-pillar shows tow
rating information for your vehicle.
{Warning
You and others could be seriously
injured or killed if the trailer is too
heavy or the trailer brakes are
inadequate for the load. The vehicle
may be damaged, and the repairs
would not be covered by the vehicle
warranty.
