REAR VIEW CAMERA
(IF EQUIPPED)
WARNINGS
The rear view camera system is a
reverse aid supplement device that
still requires the driver to use it in
conjunction with the interior and exterior
mirrors for maximum coverage.
Objects that are close to either
corner of the bumper or under the
bumper, might not be seen on the screen
due to the limited coverage of the camera
system.
Back up as slow as possible since
higher speeds might limit your
reaction time to stop the vehicle.
Use caution when using the rear
video camera and the trunk is ajar.
If the trunk is ajar, the camera will be out
of position and the video image may be
incorrect. All guidelines (if enabled) have
been removed when the trunk is ajar.
Use caution when turning camera
features on or off while in R
(Reverse). Make sure the vehicle is not
moving.
The rear view camera system provides a
video image of the area behind your
vehicle. The image will display in either
the rear view mirror or the display in the
center of the instrument panel.
During operation, lines will appear in the
display that represent your vehicle’s path
and proximity to objects behind your
vehicle.
E152548
The camera is located on the trunk near
the high-mount brake lamp.
Using the Rear View Camera System
The rear view camera system displays
what is behind your vehicle when you
place the transmission in Reverse (R).
The system uses three types of guides to
help you see what is behind your vehicle:
•
Active guidelines: Show the intended
path of your vehicle when reversing.
•
Fixed guidelines: Show the actual path
your vehicle is moving in while
reversing in a straight line. This can be
helpful when backing into a parking
space or aligning your vehicle with
another object behind you.
•
Centerline (if applicable): Helps align
the center of your vehicle with an
object (trailer).
Note: If the transmission is in Reverse (R)
and the luggage compartment is ajar, no
rear view camera features will display.
Note: If the image comes on while the
transmission is not in Reverse (R), have
the system inspected by an authorized
dealer.
