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
When you connect a trailer to your vehicle,the trailer set up menu appears in theinformation display. This menu allows you toset up a new trailer or choose from apreviously set up trailer. A warning messageappears and the system turns off if you donot choose or add a new trailer.
Note:The warning message may not appearuntil your vehicle speed reaches 22 mph(35 km/h).
If you select a trailer in the informationdisplay before connecting a trailer to yourvehicle, the system loads the configurationfor the selected trailer. When a trailer isconnected, a warning message appears.
Note:A second warning message mayappear stating that the Cross Traffic Alertsystem has turned off. The Blind SpotInformation System with Trailer Towcontinues to function normally in thissituation.
Note:The system remembers the lastselected trailer set up when you start yourvehicle.
Trailer Considerations
The system is designed to work with a trailerwith a front width of 8.5 ft (2.6 m) or less, anda total length from the trailer hitch ball to therear of the trailer of 33 ft (10.1 m) or less.
Some trailers may cause a slight change insystem performance:
•Large box trailers may cause false alertsto occur when driving next toinfrastructures or near parked cars. Afalse alert may also occur while makinga 90-degree turn.
•Trailers that have a width greater than8.5 ft (2.6 m) at the front and have a totallength greater than 20 ft (6 m) may causedelayed alerts when a vehicle is passingat high speed.

WARNING: The system cannot helpprevent all crashes. Do not rely on thissystem to replace driver judgment and theneed to maintain a safe distance andspeed.
Using the Pre-Collision Assist System
The Pre-Collision Assist system is active atspeeds above approximately 3 mph (5 km/h)and pedestrian detection is active at speedsup to 50 mph (80 km/h).
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching anotherstationary vehicle, a vehicle traveling in thesame direction as yours, or a pedestrianwithin your driving path, the system isdesigned to provide three levels offunctionality:
1. Alert
2. Brake Support
3. Active Braking
Alert: When active, a flashing visual warningappears and an audible warning tonesounds.
Brake Support: The system is designed tohelp reduce the impact speed by preparingthe brakes for rapid braking. Brake supportdoes not automatically apply the brakes. Ifyou press the brake pedal, the system couldapply additional braking up to maximumbraking force, even if you lightly press thebrake pedal.
Active Braking: Active braking may activateif the system determines that a collision isimminent. The system may help the driverreduce impact damage or avoid the crashcompletely.
Note:The Active Braking capability of thesystem is disabled when you select theSLOW CLIMB drive mode.
Note:If you perceive Pre-Collision Assistalerts as being too frequent or disturbing,then you can reduce the alert sensitivity,though the manufacturer recommends usingthe highest sensitivity setting where possible.Setting lower sensitivity would lead to fewerand later system warnings.
Distance Indication and Alert
Distance Indication and Alert is a functionthat provides you with a graphical indicationof the time gap to other preceding vehiclestraveling in the same direction. The DistanceIndication and Alert screen in the informationdisplay shows one of the following graphics.

TOWING A TRAILER
WARNING: Towing trailersbeyond the maximum recommendedgross trailer weight exceeds the limitof your vehicle and could result inengine damage, transmission damage,structural damage, loss of vehiclecontrol, vehicle rollover and personalinjury.
WARNING: Do not exceed theGVWR or the GAWR specified on thecertification label.
Note: See Recommended TowingWeights (page 309).
Your vehicle may have electrical items,such as fuses or relays, related totowing. See Fuses (page 341).
Your vehicle's load capacity designationis by weight, not by volume, so youcannot necessarily use all availablespace when loading a vehicle or trailer.
Towing a trailer places an extra load onyour vehicle's engine, transmission, axle,brakes, tires and suspension. Inspectthese components periodically during,and after, any towing operation.
Load Placement
To help minimize how trailer movementaffects your vehicle when driving:
•Load the heaviest items closest tothe trailer floor.
•Load the heaviest items centeredbetween the left and right side trailertires.
•Load the heaviest items above thetrailer axles or just slightly forwardtoward the trailer tongue. Do notallow the final trailer tongue weightto go above or below 10-15% of theloaded trailer weight.
•Select a ball mount with the correctrise or drop and load capacity. Whenboth the loaded vehicle and trailerare connected, the trailer frameshould be level, or slightly angleddown toward your vehicle, whenviewed from the side.
When driving with a trailer or payload, aslight takeoff vibration or shudder maybe present due to the increased payloadweight. Additional information regardingproper trailer loading and setting yourvehicle up for towing is located inanother chapter of this manual. SeeLoad Limit (page 292).
You can also find information in the RV& Trailer Towing Guide available at yourauthorized dealer, or online.
