STARTING AND OPERATING
If the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system
detects a vehicle in the adjacent lane, and the
turn signal is applied in that direction, the BSM
LED on the mirror will flash. If the driver
continues to attempt the lane change, steering
wheel torque will be provided to keep the
vehicle within its lane markings.
The driver may manually override the steering
assist warning by applying force to the steering
wheel at any time.
When only a single lane marking is detected and
the driver drifts across the lane marking (no turn
signal applied), the Active Lane Management
system provides a visual warning in the instrument
cluster, as well as a steering assist torque (if
configured in Uconnect Settings), to prompt the
driver to remain within the lane boundaries. If the
driver continues to drift out of the lane, the system
provides a flashing visual warning through the
instrument cluster display as well as a haptic
steering wheel vibration (if configured in Uconnect
Settings) when the vehicle crosses the lane
boundary.
NOTE:
When operating conditions have been met, the
Active Lane Management system will monitor if the
driver’s hands are on the steering wheel and
provides an audible and visual warning to the
driver if removed. The system will cancel if the
driver does not return their hands to the wheel.

Left Lane Departure — Only Left Lane Detected
When the system is on and only the left lane
marking has been detected, and the system is
ready to provide visual warnings in the instru
-
ment cluster display and a vibration and/or
steering assist warning in the steering wheel if a
lane departure occurs, the left lane line will be
green.
When the system senses the lane line has been
approached (but not crossed), the left lane line
will change to solid yellow and the system will
provide a haptic steering wheel vibration and/or
steering assist torque (if programmed in
Uconnect Settings).
When the system senses the lane line is being
crossed, the left lane line will change to flashing
yellow.

Left Lane Departure — Both Lanes Detected
When the system is on, the lane lines turn from
gray to green to indicate that both of the lane
markings have been detected. When both lane
markings have been detected, the system is
ready to provide visual warnings in the instru
-
ment cluster display and a vibration and/or
steering assist warning in the steering wheel if a
lane departure occurs.
Lanes Sensed (Green Lines)
When the system senses a lane drift situation,
the left lane line turns solid yellow. At this time,
steering assist warning is applied to the steering
wheel in the opposite direction of the lane
boundary.
For example: If approaching the left side of the
lane, the steering wheel will turn to the right.
Lane Drift (Solid Yellow Line)
When the system senses the lane line is being
crossed, the left lane line changes from solid
yellow to flashing yellow (on/off). At this time,
vibration is applied to the steering wheel.
For example: If approaching the left side of the
lane, the steering wheel will turn to the right.

axle systems (GAWR). Total load must be limited so
GVWR and front and rear GAWR are not exceeded.

(GAWR)
The GAWR is the maximum permissible load on the
front and rear axles. The load must be distributed
in the cargo area so that the GAWR of each axle is
not exceeded.
Each axle GAWR is determined by the components
in the system with the lowest load carrying capacity
(axle, springs, tires or wheels). Heavier axles or
suspension components sometimes specified by
purchasers for increased durability do not
necessarily increase the vehicle's GVWR.

Never add fuel when the engine is running.
This is in violation of most state and federal
fire regulations and may cause the Malfunc

A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a
portable container that is inside of a vehicle.
You could be burned. Always place fuel

The curb weight of a vehicle is defined as the total
weight of the vehicle with all fluids, including
vehicle fuel, at full capacity conditions, and with no
occupants or cargo loaded into the vehicle. The
front and rear curb weight values are determined
by weighing your vehicle on a commercial scale
before any occupants or cargo are added.
L
OADING
The actual total weight and the weight of the front
and rear of your vehicle at the ground can best be
determined by weighing it when it is loaded and
ready for operation.
The entire vehicle should first be weighed on a
commercial scale to ensure that the GVWR has not
been exceeded. The weight on the front and rear of
the vehicle should then be determined separately
to be sure that the load is properly distributed over
the front and rear axle. Weighing the vehicle may
show that the GAWR of either the front or rear axles
has been exceeded but the total load is within the
specified GVWR. If so, weight must be shifted from
front to rear or rear to front as appropriate until the
specified weight limitations are met. Store the
heavier items down low and be sure that the
weight is distributed equally. Stow all loose items
securely before driving.
Improper weight distributions can have an adverse
effect on the way your vehicle steers and handles
and the way the brakes operate.
TRAILER TOWING
In this section you will find safety tips and
information on limits to the type of towing you can
reasonably do with your vehicle. Before towing a
trailer, carefully review this information to tow your
load as efficiently and safely as possible.
To maintain the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
coverage, follow the requirements and
recommendations in this manual concerning
vehicles used for trailer towing.

EFINITIONS
The following trailer towing related definitions will
assist you in understanding the following
information:
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
The GVWR is the total allowable weight of your
vehicle. This includes driver, passengers, cargo
and tongue weight. The total load must be limited
so that you do not exceed the GVWR
Gross Trailer Weight (GTW)
The GTW is the weight of the trailer plus the weight
of all cargo, consumables and equipment
(permanent or temporary) loaded in or on the
trailer in its "loaded and ready for operation"
condition.
The recommended way to measure GTW is to put
your fully loaded trailer on a vehicle scale. The
entire weight of the trailer must be supported by
the scale.
WARNING!
Do not load your vehicle any heavier than the
GVWR or the maximum front and rear GAWR. If
you do, parts on your vehicle can break, or it can
change the way your vehicle handles. This could
cause you to lose control. Overloading can
shorten the life of your vehicle.
WARNING!
If the gross trailer weight is 5,000 lb (2,267 kg)
or more, it is recommended to use a
weight-distributing hitch to ensure stable
handling of your vehicle. If you use a standard
weight-carrying hitch, you could lose control of
your vehicle and cause a collision.

Gross Combination Weight Rating (GCWR)
The GCWR is the total allowable weight of your
vehicle and trailer when weighed in combination.
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)
The GAWR is the maximum capacity of the front
and rear axles. Distribute the load over the front
and rear axles evenly. Make sure that you do not
exceed either front or rear GAWR
Tongue Weight (TW)
The TW is the downward force exerted on the hitch
ball by the trailer. You must consider this as part of
the load on your vehicle.
Trailer Frontal Area
The frontal area is the maximum height multiplied
by the maximum width of the front of a trailer.
Trailer Sway Control (TSC)
The TSC can be a mechanical telescoping link that
can be installed between the hitch receiver and the
trailer tongue that typically provides adjustable
friction associated with the telescoping motion to
dampen any unwanted trailer swaying motions
while traveling.
The electronic TSC (if equipped) recognizes a
swaying trailer and automatically applies individual
wheel brakes and/or reduces engine power to
attempt to eliminate the trailer sway.
Weight-Carrying Hitch
A weight-carrying hitch supports the trailer tongue
weight, just as if it were luggage located at a hitch
ball or some other connecting point of the vehicle.
These kinds of hitches are used to tow small and
medium sized trailers.
Weight-Distributing Hitch
A weight-distributing system works by applying
leverage through spring (load) bars. They are
typically used for heavier loads to distribute trailer
tongue weight to the tow vehicle's front axle and
the trailer axle(s). When used in accordance with
the manufacturer's directions, it provides for a
more level ride, offering more consistent steering
and brake control thereby enhancing towing
safety. The addition of a friction/hydraulic sway
control also dampens sway caused by traffic and
crosswinds and contributes positively to tow
vehicle and trailer stability. Trailer Sway Control
(TSC) and a weight-distributing (load equalizing)
hitch are recommended for heavier Tongue
Weights (TW) and may be required depending on
vehicle and trailer configuration/loading to comply
with Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)
requirements.
WARNING!
It is important that you do not exceed the
maximum front or rear GAWR. A dangerous
driving condition can result if either rating is
exceeded. You could lose control of the vehicle
and have a collision.
WARNING!
If the gross trailer weight is 5,000 lb
(2,267 kg) or more, it is recommended to use
a weight-distributing hitch to ensure stable
handling of your vehicle. If you use a standard
weight-carrying hitch, you could lose control of
your vehicle and cause a collision.

RECOMMENDED DISTRIBUTION HITCH
ADJUSTMENT
1. Verify that the vehicle is at the Normal Ride
Height.
NOTE:
The vehicle must remain in the engine run position
with all doors closed while attaching a trailer for
proper leveling of the air suspension system.
2. Position the vehicle to be ready to connect to
the trailer (do not connect the trailer).
3. For vehicles equipped with Quadra-Lift air
suspension, use the touchscreen radio
settings to enable Tire/Jack mode. Tire/Jack
mode will be canceled and the procedure must
be restarted if the vehicle is driven at speeds
above 5mph (8 km/h).
4. Measure the height from the top of the front
wheel opening on the fender to ground; this is
height H1.
Measuring Height (H)
5. Attach the trailer to the vehicle without the
weight distribution bars connected.
6. Measure the height from the top of the front
wheel opening on the fender to the ground;
this is height H2.
7. Install and adjust the tension in the weight
distributing bars per the manufacturer’s
recommendations so that the height of the
front fender is approximately (H2-H1)/2+H1
(about 1/2 the difference between H2 and H1
above Normal Ride Height [H1]).
8. Use the touchscreen radio settings and switch
off Tire/Jack mode. Make sure the truck
returns to Normal Ride Height. Perform a
visual inspection of the trailer and
weight-distributing hitch to confirm the
manufacturers’ recommendations have been
met.
9. The vehicle can now be driven.
An improperly adjusted weight-distributing
hitch system may reduce handling, stability,
braking performance, and could result in a
collision.
Weight-distributing systems may not be
compatible with surge brake couplers. Consult
with your hitch and trailer manufacturer or a
reputable Recreational Vehicle dealer for
additional information.
