Trailer Hitching Assistance
TRAILER HITCHING
ASSISTANCE LIMITATIONS
The system could not function, or could
function with reduced performance, during
the following:
• When using trailer hitching assistance
in tall grass and weeds.
• When safety chains, cables or wiring
are dangling near the coupler.
• When using trailer hitching assistance
on slippery surfaces.
• When using hitches that raise the hitch
ball more than 4 in (10 cm), lower the
hitch ball by more than 6 in (16 cm) or
extend the hitch ball away from the
vehicle more than 12 in (30 cm).
• When using hitches that are lower than
10 in (25 cm) off the ground.
• When using objects taller than 8 in
(20 cm), such as large blocks under
the jack stand.
• When you park the trailer on surfaces
that are similar in color to the trailer
coupler and hitch ball.
• A black coupler or hitch ball over a
dark asphalt surface.
• A light color coupler or hitch ball
over a light concrete surface.
• When there are low or no light sources,
such as at night.
• The feature may not align accurately
during cold weather. If this occurs,
allowing the engine to reach normal
operating temperature may improve
performance.
