Warning (Continued)
(20-25 mph) and fully apply the
manual trailer brake apply lever.
Also, check the trailer brake
lamps and other lamps are
functioning correctly.
.If the trailer brakes are not
operating properly at any time,
or if a DIC message indicates
problems with the trailer
connections or trailer brakes,
carefully pull the vehicle over to
the side of the road when traffic
conditions allow.
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.If the vehicle is equipped with a trailer
tire pressure monitoring system, see
the trailer tire pressure monitoring
system description and the
trailering app.
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).
Trailering App
Trailer Lights App
If equipped, the Trailer Lights App is

To turn the Tow/Haul Mode Reminder
setting on, touch Yes. To turn it off,
touch No.
Trailer Tire Pressure Setup
If the Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TTPMS) is detected, touch
the Tire Pressure Monitoring icon to
set up tire pressure monitoring. Touch
Yes to set up the sensors or touch No
to return to the previous screen.
The trailer tire pressure sensors can
transmit up to 7 m (23 ft) from the
hitch receiver of the vehicle.
A trailer must be electrically
connected to the vehicle before
starting the sensor-to-vehicle learn
process.
After selecting Start from the Learn
Sensors screen, use the Tool Method
or the Manual Method (described
below) to learn each tire sensor,
during which the current tire number
will be highlighted.Each sensor has a minimum of
two minutes to learn, shown by a
timer. After a sensor is learned, a
checkmark appears next to the tire,
the vehicle horn will sound, the
vehicle’s brake lamps will flash, and
all working trailer lamps will flash.
It then moves to the next sensor.
To cancel the process touch Stop.
The recommended tire pressure must
be entered for the trailer tires. This
allows the vehicle to alert when the
tire pressure is high or low.
TTPMS must learn the location of the
installed tire sensors to show correct
air pressure and temperature for each
tire. To set up, use one of the
following options or see a tire or
trailer dealer for service. The learning
process must be repeated when the
trailer tires are rotated or replaced.
See
“Editing a Trailer Profile ”later in
this section for tire pressure sensor
relearn information.
Tool Method: A TTPMS activation tool
can be purchased separately to learn
the sensor locations. Manual Method: Without the tool, the
air pressure can be increased or
decreased in each tire for 10 seconds.
Do not exceed the maximum inflation
pressure found on the tire sidewalls.
Make sure to re-adjust tire pressure to
the recommended level when the
process is complete.
Sensor Learning Steps

learn process:
1. Touch Start on the Learn Sensors screen. The horn chirps twice and
the Learning Active screen appears
on the infotainment display.
2. Start with the driver side front trailer tire.
3. Activate the tool near the valve stem or adjust the air pressure of
this tire until the horn chirps and
all working vehicle and trailer
lights flash.
The process stops without saving
the sensor locations if this step
takes more than two minutes.
