In addition to multiple view options, your
touchscreen adds some features to give
you more information.
After using the set up for a conventional
trailer, for example, the display always
shows you a small, top-view
representation of your truck and trailer.
This representation shows two,
different-colored lines: A black line shows
you where your trailer is in relation to your
vehicle. A white line gives you a projection
of where your trailer will go based on your
current steering wheel position
Note: When you move the steering wheel,
the white line indicates where the trailer will
go based on your steering wheel input.
When you turn your steering wheel to the
left, the trailer moves to the right; when you
turn your steering wheel to the right, the
trailer moves to the left.
When you turn the wheel, the small
representation shows you two zones to
warn you of a possible jackknife condition.
The view shows you your truck and trailer
position and provides visual feedback to
help you avoid jackknifing entirely.
The yellow zone warns you of a potential
jackknife position. When you enter into this
zone, it's best to put your vehicle back into
drive (D) and pull forward. Moving forward
helps put the truck and trailer back into an
in-line position.
The RED zone indicates that you need to
put the truck into drive (D) and pull
forward immediately.
Troubleshooting
Note: The system requires a clear view of
the sticker placed on the trailer. You must
keep the camera lens and sticker clean for
the system to operate correctly.
Setup
The system is designed to be used with a
wide variety of trailers. However there are
some trailers that do not have a proper
surface and location to mount the sticker.
These trailers are not supported. Attempts
to place the sticker on a surface that does
not meet the sticker placement
requirement listed in Step 3 of the setup
instruction or entering inaccurate
measurements to proceed through setup
can result in improper system function.
