Trailer Backup Assistance
Note: Your vehicle has two options for
trailer backup assistance set up. The system
defaults to the camera based system. See
Applying the Trailer Reversing Aid Sticker
(page 441). You can also set up the system
with the trailer sensor that you can purchase
from your authorized dealer. You must
connect the sensor to your vehicle to set up
the system. See Trailer Sensor
Installation (page 441).
Note: If you configure the trailer and install
a sensor, the system saves the trailer with
that sensor information. If you want to use
this trailer with the sticker, you need to
delete the trailer from the system and
repeat the setup process.
APPLYING THE TRAILER
REVERSING AID STICKER
Place the sticker in an area visible by the
rear view camera. The entire sticker must
be within 4–19 in (10–48 cm) from the
center of the hitch ball, as shown in the
following illustration.

(If Equipped)
Use the supplied sticker placement card,
a tape measure and pen to carefully mark
the area to attach the sticker. The sticker
is in the back cover pocket of your quick
start guide. Make sure the entire sticker is
within the green zone between the two
arcs or distance markers on the diagram,
and is also visible in the rear view camera
display.
Once you have found the correct location,
place the sticker.
Note: Make sure nothing can obstruct the
rear view camera's view of the sticker such
as a jack handle or wiring.
Note: Position the sticker on a flat, dry and
clean horizontal surface. For best results,
apply the sticker when temperatures are
above 32°F (0°C).
Note: Do not move stickers after placing
them. Do not re-use any stickers if removed.
Note: You can purchase additional stickers
through your authorized dealer.
Note: If you previously setup the trailer with
the trailer sensor, make sure it is not plugged
in before configuring the trailer and placing
the sticker.
