Towing

Note: If you still experience issues with the system's ability to detect the sticker, see the information in the next section regarding sticker lost during system operation. Measurement A has reached maximum or minimum value: • The system is designed to work with drawbars that have a license plate to hitch ball center measurement of 9 in (23 cm) to 16 in (41 cm)when installed. Do not attempt to use drawbars that have a length outside this range as the system performance will be degraded and could cause improper system function. • Make sure that themeasurement being made is the horizontal distance only from license plate and the hitch ball center. A straight line distance that includes any vertical rise or drop increases themeasurement andmakes it inaccurate. Inaccurate measurements degrade system performanceandcouldcause improper system function. See step 4 of the setup instruction to review measurement instructions. Measurement B has reached maximum or minimum value: • Make sure that the sticker placement instruction in step 3 of the setup has been followed. Stickers placed outside the allowed zone will adversely affect the system performance and could cause improper feature function. • Make sure that themeasurement being made is the horizontal distance only from center of sticker to the hitch ball center. A straight line distance that includes any vertical rise or drop increases the measurement and causes an inaccurate value to be entered into the system. See step 4 of the setup for additional measurement instructions.

Measurement C has reached maximum or minimum value: • Make sure you follow the sticker placement instructions in step 3 of the setup. Stickers placed outside the allowed zone adversely affect the system performance and could cause improper feature function. If you have met all the criteria for sticker placement and you see this message, the sticker is either too far belowor too close to the camera to properly recognize the sticker. In order for the system to operate correctly, the sticker height must be lowered if you receive the minimum warning or the sticker height must be raised if you receive the maximum warning. • Only one sticker can be placed on the trailer for correct system function. The previous sticker must be removed or covered so only one sticker is visible to the camera. • Measurement B and C must be measured again if a new sticker is placed on the trailer. Measurement D has reachedmaximum or minimum value: • Make sure that themeasurement being made is the horizontal distance only from tailgate to the center of the single axle or the center of all the axles on the trailer. See step 4 of the setup for additional measurement instructions. The system does not support trailer lengths outside the range allowed by the information display.
