Rear Park Assist Camera (PAC) –
function
Function
The driver sees what is behind the vehicle
and if a person or animal should suddenly
appear from the side.
PAC is mounted on the tailgate, near the
opening handle.
The camera has built-in electronics that help
reduce the "fish-eye" effect so that the image
shown on the screen is as natural as possi-
ble. This may cause some objects on the
07
screen to "lean," which is normal.
Ambient lighting conditions
The camera automatically monitors the ambi-
ent lighting conditions behind the vehicle and
constantly adjusts sensitivity to light. This
may cause the brightness and quality of the
image on the screen to vary slightly. Sensitiv-
234
ity to light is increased in dark conditions or in
bad weather, which may affect image quality.
If the image on the screen seems too dark,
brightness can be increased with the thumb
wheel on the lighting panel.
NOTE
In order to function properly, the camera
lens should always be kept clean. This is
particularly important in bad weather.
Keep the lens free of dirt, ice or snow.
