3.Is the width less than 9 ft (2.7 m) andlength less than 33 ft (10.1 m)? If no, thesystem turns off. If yes, the menu goesto the next screen.
4.Trailer width measurement. Measure thewidth at the front of the trailer. It is notmeasured at the widest point of thetrailer. The maximum width at the frontof the trailer the system can support is8.5 ft (2.6 m).
Note:You do not need to enter an exacttrailer width measurement. You only needto confirm that the width of the trailer is lessthan 9 ft (2.7 m).
5.Trailer length measurement. The trailerlength is the distance between the trailerhitch ball and the rear of the trailer. Themaximum length that the system cansupport is 33 ft (10.1 m).
6.Enter the length of trailer. The defaultsetting is 18 ft (5.5 m). Toggling up ordown using the menu buttons increasesor decreases the measurement by 1 ft(0.3 m). Select a length that is equal to orwithin 1 ft (0.3 m) of the actual measuredlength. For example, if the actualmeasure length is 23 ft (7 m), toggle thelength in the menu to 24 ft (7.2 m). Thesystem setup saves when you enter thelength of the trailer.
Note:If the trailer is a bike rack or cargorack with electrical lighting, enter a lengthof around 3 ft (1 m). Cross traffic alert remainson for trailers with a length of 3 ft (1 m) orless.
