304 Driving and Operating
contacting the road if it
becomes separated from the
hitch. Always leave just
enough slack so the
combination can turn. Never
allow safety chains to drag on
the ground.
Trailer Brakes
Loaded trailers over 450 kg
(1,000 lb) must be equipped
with brake systems and with
brakes for each axle. Trailer
braking equipment conforming
to Canadian Standards
Association (CSA) requirement
CAN3-D313, or its equivalent,
is recommended.
State or local regulations may
require trailers to have their
own braking system if the
loaded weight of the trailer
exceeds certain minimums
that can vary from state to
state. Read and follow the
instructions for the trailer
brakes so they are installed,
adjusted, and maintained
properly. Never attempt to tap
into your vehicle's hydraulicbrake system. If you do, both
the vehicle anti-lock brakes
and the trailer brakes may not
function, which could result in
a crash.
Trailer Lamps
Always check that all trailer
lamps are working at the
beginning of each trip, and
periodically on longer trips.
Turn Signals When
Towing a Trailer
When properly connected, the
trailer turn signals will
illuminate to indicate the
vehicle is turning, changing
lanes, or stopping. When
towing a trailer, the arrows on
the instrument cluster will
illuminate even if the trailer is
not properly connected or the
bulbs are burned out.
Trailer Sway
Control (TSC)
Vehicles with StabiliTrak/
Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) have a Trailer Sway
Control (TSC) feature. Trailer
sway is unintended
side-to-side motion of a trailer
while towing. If the vehicle is
towing a trailer and the TSC
detects that sway is
increasing, the vehicle brakes
are selectively applied at each
wheel, to help reduce
excessive trailer sway.

Driving and Operating 305
If TSC is enabled, the Traction
Control System (TCS)/
StabiliTrak warning light will
flash on the instrument
cluster. Reduce vehicle speed
by gradually removing your
foot from the accelerator.
If trailer sway continues,
StabiliTrak can help slow the
vehicle down. TSC will not
function if StabiliTrak is turned
off. See Traction Control/
Electronic Stability Control
0221.
{Warning
Trailer sway can result in a
crash and in serious injury or
death, even if the vehicle is
equipped with TSC.
If the trailer begins to sway,
reduce vehicle speed by
gradually removing your foot
from the accelerator. Then
pull over to check the trailer
and vehicle to help correct
possible causes, including an
improperly or overloaded

Warning (Continued)
trailer, unrestrained cargo,
improper trailer hitch
configuration, or improperly
inflated or incorrect vehicle
or trailer tires. See Towing
Equipment0303 for trailer
ratings and hitch setup
recommendations.
Trailer Tires
Special Trailer (ST) tires differ
from vehicle tires. Trailer tires
are designed with stiff
sidewalls to help prevent sway
and to support heavy loads.
These features can make it
difficult to determine if the
trailer tire pressures are low
only based on a visual
inspection.
Always check all trailer tire
pressures before each trip
when the tires are cool. Low
trailer tire pressure is a
leading cause of trailer tire
blow-outs. Trailer tires deteriorate over
time. The trailer tire sidewall
will show the week and year
the tire was manufactured.
Many trailer tire
manufacturers recommend
replacing tires more than six
years old.
Overloading is another leading
cause of trailer tire blow-outs.
Never load your trailer with
more weight than the tires are
designed to support. The load
rating is located on the trailer
tire sidewall.
Always know the maximum
speed rating for the trailer
tires before driving. This may
be significantly lower than the
vehicle tire speed rating. The
speed rating may be on the
trailer tire sidewall. If the
speed rating is not shown, the
default trailer tire speed rating
is 105 km/h (65 mph).

maintain correct tire pressure,
even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low
tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been
equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is
not operating properly. The
TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the
system detects a malfunction,
the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and
then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including
the installation of replacementor alternate tires or wheels on
the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the
TPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle
to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires
and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
See Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation
0344.
See Radio Frequency
Statement 0395.
Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation
This vehicle may have a Tire
Pressure Monitor System
(TPMS). The TPMS is designed
to warn the driver when a low
tire pressure condition exists.
TPMS sensors are mounted
onto each tire and wheel
assembly, excluding the spare
tire and wheel assembly. The
TPMS sensors monitor the air
pressure in the tires and transmit the tire pressure
readings to a receiver located
in the vehicle.
When a low tire pressure
condition is detected, the
TPMS illuminates the low tire
pressure warning light located
on the instrument cluster.
If the warning light comes on,
stop as soon as possible and
inflate the tires to the
recommended pressure
shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See
Vehicle Load Limits
0202.
A message to check the
pressure in a specific tire
displays in the Driver
Information Center (DIC). The
low tire pressure warning light
and the DIC warning message
come on each time the vehicle
is turned on until the tires are

not use bleach or fabric
softener. Rinse thoroughly and
air dry before next use.
Caution
Do not attach a device with
a suction cup to the display.
This may cause damage and
would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty.
Instrument Panel, Leather,
Vinyl, Other Plastic
Surfaces, Low Gloss Paint
Surfaces, and Natural
Open Pore Wood
Surfaces
Use a soft bristle brush to
remove dust from knobs and
crevices on the instrument
cluster. Use a soft microfiber
cloth dampened with water to
remove dust and loose dirt.
For a more thorough cleaning,
use a soft microfiber cloth
dampened with a mild soap
and water solution.
Caution
Soaking or saturating
leather, especially
perforated leather, as well
as other interior surfaces,
may cause permanent
damage. Wipe excess
moisture from these
surfaces after cleaning and
allow them to dry naturally.
Never use heat, steam,
or spot removers. Do not
use liquids that contain
alcohol or solvents on
leather seats. Do not use
cleaners that contain
silicone or wax-based
products. Cleaners
containing these solvents
can permanently change the
appearance and feel of
leather or soft trim, and are
not recommended.
Do not use cleaners that
increase gloss, especially on
the instrument panel.
Reflected glare can decrease visibility through the
windshield under certain
conditions.
Caution
Use of air fresheners may
cause permanent damage to
plastics and painted
surfaces. If an air freshener
comes in contact with any
plastic or painted surface in
the vehicle, blot immediately
and clean with a soft cloth
dampened with a mild soap
solution. Damage caused by
air fresheners would not be
covered by the vehicle
warranty.
Cargo Cover and
Convenience Net
If equipped, wash with warm
water and mild detergent. Do
not use chlorine bleach. Rinse
with cold water, and then dry
completely.
Care of Seat Belts
Keep belts clean and dry.
