1. Shift into REVERSE and select the HITCH GUIDANCE button on the bottom of your infotainment system screen. Depending on your vehicle, the button may look like a guideline on top of a trailer icon. The Rear Vision Camera backing guidelines will then change into a single guideline that will help you back up to your trailer. The line will extend from behind your vehicle to the trailer coupler, while bending and adjusting as you turn while backing up.
2. To line up your vehicle’s hitch ball with your trailer’s coupler, back up slowly. Steer to keep the single dynamic guideline aligned over your vehicle’s hitch ball and centred with the coupler of the trailer.
3. When you get close to the trailer coupler, you can select the HITCH VIEW button (if equipped) from your infotainment system screen. The icon looks like a trailer hitch with a magnifying glass on top of it. Hitch View will bring up a zoomed-in view of your vehicle’s hitch ball and trailer coupler to help make trailer hitching easier.
- When it is safe to do so, you can briefly check the Hitch View camera display to see the hitch connection while you’re driving forward by pushing the CAMERA icon on your infotainment system. On some vehicles, this view will time out after 8 seconds
