Note:You do not need to enter an exacttrailer width measurement. You only needto confirm that the width of the trailer is 8.5 ft(2.6 m) or less.
•Trailer length measurement:
The trailer length is the distance betweenthe trailer hitch ball and the rear of the trailer.The maximum length that the system cansupport is 33 ft (10.1 m).
•Enter length of trailer:
The default setting is 18 ft (5.5 m). Togglingup or down using the menu buttonsincreases or decreases the measurement by3 ft (1 m). Select a length that is equal to orwithin 3 ft (1 m) of the actual measuredlength. For example, if the actual measuredlength is 25 ft (7.6 m), toggle the length inthe menu to 27 ft (8.2 m). When you enterthe length of the trailer, the system setup issaved.
Note:If the trailer is actually a bike rack orcargo rack with electrical lighting, enter alength of 3 ft (1 m). Cross Traffic Alert remainson for trailers with a length of 3 ft (1 m) orless.
Note:Proper measurement andmeasurement entry is required for thesystem to function as designed.
System Operation

Use the supplied measurement card, a tapemeasure and pen to carefully mark the areawhere to attach the sticker (supplied in theback cover pocket of your quick start guide).Make sure the whole sticker is within thezone between the two arcs or distancemarkers on the diagram, and is also visiblein the rear view camera display.
Step 4: Take Measurements
After you correctly place the sticker on thetrailer, you must take some keymeasurements.
Note:You must take accuratemeasurements for the system to operateproperly.
Note:When rounding in inches, roundupward if the measured length is a quarterinch or greater. Round downward if themeasured length is less than a quarter inch.For example 12.25 in (31.11 cm) would berounded up to 12.50 in (31.75 cm). 12.13 in(30.8 cm) would be rounded down to 12.00 in(30.48 cm).
Note:When rounding in centimeters, roundto the nearest whole centimeter. If themeasurement is less than 0.2 in (0.5 cm)round downward. If the measurement ismore than or equal to 0.2 in (0.5 cm) roundupward. For example, 11.9 in (30.3 cm) wouldbe rounded down to 11.8 in (30 cm). 12.0 in(30.5 cm) would be rounded up to 12.2 in(31 cm).
Note:Use consistent metric or imperial unitsas required by your country or vehicle.
Record the four key distances (A, B, C, D) asrequired by the measurement card. Recordthe trailer name for these measurements.Distance A
The horizontal distance from the bumper tothe center of the ball hitch on the trailer.
Distance B
The horizontal distance from the center ofthe ball hitch to the center of the sticker.
Distance C
The distance from the rear view camera tothe center of the sticker.

Setup
The system is designed to be used with awide variety of trailers. However there aresome trailers that do not have a propersurface and location to mount the sticker.These trailers are not supported. Attemptsto place the sticker on a surface that doesnot meet the sticker placement requirementlisted in Step 3 of the setup instruction orentering inaccurate measurements toproceed through setup can result in impropersystem function.
Accurate measurements are critical to correctsystem function. If you need to checkmeasurements entered or change them youcan access them through the trailer menusin the instrument cluster. Choose the optionto change the sticker from the change trailersettings menu. It is not necessary to removethe sticker if you are just reviewing orchanging measurements.
The following menu warnings or difficultiesmay occur during setup. Tips to resolve themare listed below.
Note:If you still experience issues with thesystem's ability to detect the sticker, see theinformation in the next section regardingsticker lost during system operation.
Measurement A has reached maximum orminimum value:
•The system is designed to work withdrawbars that have a bumper to hitch ballcenter measurement of 4 in (10 cm) to11 in (28 cm) when installed. Do notattempt to use drawbars that have alength outside this range as the systemperformance will be degraded and couldcause improper system function.
•Make sure that the measurement beingmade is the horizontal distance only frombumper and the hitch ball center. Astraight line distance that includes anyvertical rise or drop will increase themeasurement and make it inaccurate.Inaccurate measurements will degradesystem performance and could causeimproper system function. See step 4 ofthe setup instruction to reviewmeasurement instructions.
Measurement B has reached maximum orminimum value:
•Make sure that the sticker placementinstruction in step 3 of the setup hasbeen followed. Stickers placed outsidethe allowed zone will adversely affect thesystem performance and could causeimproper feature function.
•Make sure that the measurement beingmade is the horizontal distance only fromcenter of sticker to the hitch ball center.A straight line distance that includes anyvertical rise or drop will increase themeasurement and cause an inaccuratevalue to be entered into the system. Seestep 4 of the setup for additionalmeasurement instructions.
Measurement C has reached maximum orminimum value:
•Make sure that the sticker placementinstructions in step 3 of the setup havebeen followed. Stickers placed outsidethe allowed zone will adversely affect thesystem performance and could causeimproper feature function. If you havemet all the criteria for sticker placementand you see this message this sticker is

either too far below or too close to thecamera to properly recognize the sticker.In order for the system to operatecorrectly the sticker height must belowered if you receive the minimumwarning or the sticker height must beraised if you receive the maximumwarning.
•Only one sticker can be placed on thetrailer for correct system function. Theprevious sticker must be removed orcovered so only one sticker is visible tothe camera.
•Measurement B and C must be measuredagain if a new sticker is placed on thetrailer.
Measurement D has reached maximum orminimum value:
•Make sure that the measurement beingmade is the horizontal distance only fromthe bumper to the center of the singleaxle or the center of all the axles on thetrailer. See step 4 of the setup foradditional measurement instructions. TheTBA system does not support trailerlengths outside the range allowed by theinformation display.
System is circling something beside thesticker or system cannot find the sticker:
•Make sure the rear camera is clean andthe sticker is clearly visible in the cameraimage. Clean the camera and sticker ifnecessary.
•The camera system uses the enteredmeasurements to help locate the sticker.Inaccurate sticker measurements willdegrade the system’s ability to locate thesticker. Verify the measurements enteredinto the system are accurate.
•Remove the incorrectly circled label ordecal if possible.
•If you cannot resolve the issue a newsticker location should be tried. Thesticker location must still meet therequirements noted in step 3 of the setupinstructions. Only one sticker can beplaced on the trailer for correct systemfunction. The previous sticker must beremoved or covered so only one stickeris visible to the camera.
Calibration
The system monitors various vehicleparameters to ensure your vehicle is beingdriven straight and the trailer straight behindyour vehicle. Any steering input or trailermovement will pause the calibration.
For best results:
•Use a long, straight, smooth and levelroad when attempting to calibrate.
•Drive straight forward.
•Drive between 4 mph (6 km/h) and24 mph (39 km/h).
