Available Trailering Camera Views and Driver Assistance Features

• You can tap the CAMERA icon on the Home screen of the infotainment system to access the available views. 
• Within the app, the menu bar lets you toggle between available camera views (depending on equipment). 
• The arrows on the side of the navigation bar provide access to additional views. 
   

Most views will time out after eight seconds of driving at a certain speed, while some views will remain visible even while the vehicle is in motion. Camera view time outs may vary, depending on your vehicle. 

Additionally, some views will appear automatically when you take certain actions with a trailer connected, such as activating the turn signal. 

Note: You must enable turn signal activation for the side view cameras in the vehicle’s Settings menu under Trailering.

When you turn with a trailer connected in REVERSE or in a FORWARD gear, the Trailer Tow Mirror View will shift to show you more of your trailer while you complete the manoeuvre.
 

When you activate your turn signal, Turn Signal View will display the side of your vehicle and trailer. You’ll also see a red overlay on the camera display that indicates an area twice the length of your trailer, which can help you make lane change manoeuvres. This overlay is only visible when your trailer is straight. Turn Signal View and the Trailer Length Indicator overlay can be customized through your vehicle’s Settings menu.

Note: Trailer Length Indicator is only available on compatible trailers and requires some setup in the in-vehicle Trailering System. See your Owner’s Manual for detailed information.

On some newer vehicles, you will see a TRAILER ANGLE INDICATOR icon in the upper-right corner of your screen when in Rear Trailer View while trailer guidelines are active. This icon is designed to help show you when your trailer may be in danger of jackknifing. When the icon swings to the amber/red-shaded area, you will receive a Jackknife Alert. 
 

Jackknife Alert has two levels of alerting. When your vehicle first swings into the amber area on the Trailer Angle Indicator, you will see a yellow icon appear on your infotainment screen. You will also hear chimes or Safety Alert Seat vibrations, depending on your selected alert type preferences.
 

If you do not resolve the potential jackknifing situation and continue the manoeuvre, you will receive a second alert when entering the red-shaded area. This alert takes the form of a red icon on the infotainment system and chimes or Safety Alert Seat vibrations. When this alert occurs, you will also see your infotainment system display the Rear Camera View and, if equipped, a Top-Down View. 
 

You can disable Jackknife Alert in your vehicle’s Settings menu.

Note: Jackknife Alert and Trailer Angle Indicator are only available on compatible trailers and require some setup in the in-Vehicle Trailering System. See your Owner’s Manual for detailed information.

If your vehicle has this available feature, Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert can provide side-mirror visual alerts when a detected moving vehicle is in your side blind zone extended to trailer lengths. It can help you avoid lane change collisions. 
 

Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert uses hidden radar sensors in the rear corners of your vehicle. It extends the range Side Blind Zone Alert can detect vehicles that are currently in your side blind zone to behind your attached trailer. When you’re driving forward, these sensors can detect for moving vehicles located behind your side mirror in the next lane over.
 

Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert works with Lane Change Alert, which is designed to provide side-mirror alerts when a moving vehicle is detected rapidly approaching your side blind zone. 
 

Note: Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert is only available on compatible trailers and requires some setup in the in-vehicle Trailering System. See your Owner’s Manual for detailed information.

Depending on the vehicle’s equipment, available camera views may include the following views. Check your vehicle’s equipment list for the full list of views equipped on your vehicle. 

Allows you to see inside the cargo bed to help with fifth-wheel or gooseneck hitching and to check cargo. When using Cargo Bed View, tap the trailer guideline button for a single dynamic guideline that can help you align your hitch. On some vehicles, separate guidelines are available for both your vehicle and for your trailer when your vehicles are in REVERSE.
 

On some vehicles when in Cargo Bed View, you’ll see a “+” icon on your infotainment screen in the upper-left corner. Tap the icon to zoom in on your hitch, which can be useful in fifth-wheeler/gooseneck situations. Guidelines will disappear when you zoom in. 
 

Note: Not available on full-size SUVs.

Uses an available accessory camera to show vehicles or objects behind the trailer. 
 

On some newer vehicles, you can activate trailer guidelines by pressing the guideline button on the right side of the camera button row. You will see two sets of guidelines — a blue set of guidelines that tracks the current location of your trailer and a yellow set that outlines the predicted path of your trailer.

Trailer Angle Indicator will be activated when using this view (see above for more information). 

Note: Rear Trailer View is only available on compatible trailers and requires some setup in the in-vehicle Trailering System. See your Owner’s Manual for detailed information.

Allows you to virtually “see through” a compatible conventional trailer. Requires available accessory camera, compatible trailer and setup via the trailering system.

Provides a close-up view of the receiver hitch for alignment when connecting to a trailer.
 

Note: On some vehicles, when you shift into PARK when in Hitch View, your vehicle will automatically apply the electric parking brake to help prevent your vehicle from rolling. 

Allows the driver to monitor trailer contents or cargo using an available accessory camera in the trailer. Requires available accessory camera.
 

Note: This view is mirrored, meaning it displays backwards, like a mirror would. For this reason, it is recommended that you mount the camera facing rearward. 

Provides a rearward split view of the left and right sides of the vehicle and trailer with an overlay view of the area behind the trailer. Requires available accessory camera.

Transparent Trailer View (if equipped) allows you to virtually “see through” your connected, compatible trailer when your vehicle is properly equipped. Using an existing camera on your tailgate handle and an accessory camera on the back of your trailer, it pieces together a view of the area behind the vehicle and trailer as if your trailer is invisible. You can see the image on your infotainment screen while you drive. 
 

Rear Trailer View lets you see behind your trailer and activate two sets of guidelines that can help you line up your trailer when your vehicle is properly equipped. 

To use Transparent Trailer View, you must have a conventional hitch box-type trailer no more than 9.7m (32 feet) in length. There is no trailer length limit for Rear Trailer View guidelines.
 

These features require the installation of an available Auxiliary Accessory Trailer Camera on the exterior of your trailer and completion of a setup process through the in-vehicle Trailering System, which involves measuring and entering several trailer dimensions.  
 

The setup and calibration process are the same for both Transparent Trailer View and Rear Trailer View guidelines.

These steps are described in detail in the app and in the Owner’s Manual. They consist of the following:

1. Install the Accessory Trailer Camera on your trailer in the specified location. 
2. Enter the trailer’s dimensions into your trailer profile on the infotainment system or in the myChevrolet mobile app. 
3. Calibrate the view following the process described on-screen.
