How do I use Ford Pro Trailer Backup Assist™*?

Watch the videos below to learn how to set up your vehicle, take measurements, place the target sticker, and input information into the system in order to use Pro Trailer Backup Assist.

To back up a trailer, turn the Trailer Backup knob left or right, and the trailer steers in that direction.

Important: The system relies on your measurements to determine sticker placement and system limits. It is critical that you take the key measurements correctly. Incorrect measurements can result in the improper function of the system up to and including contact between the vehicle and trailer.
