Rear View Camera - Ford FOCUS 2017 Owner's Manual

REAR VIEW CAMERA

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.
Reverse your vehicle as slow as
possible, higher speeds may limit
your reaction time to stop your
vehicle.
Use caution when the liftgate is ajar.
If the liftgate is ajar, the camera will
be out of position and the video
image may be incorrect. All guidelines
disappear when the liftgate is ajar. Some
vehicles may not come equipped with
guidelines.
Use caution when turning camera
features on or off when the
transmission is not in park (P). Make
sure your vehicle is not moving.
The rear view camera system provides a
video image of the area behind your
vehicle.
During operation, lines appear in the
display which represent your vehicle's path
and proximity to objects behind your
vehicle.

path of your vehicle when reversing.

in a straight line. This can be helpful
when backing into a parking space or
aligning your vehicle with another
object behind you.

your vehicle with an object (for
example, a trailer).
