REAR VIEW CAMERA
CAUTION
l If your vehicle is washed with a high-pressure washer, do not
allow water to contact the camera directly. Water entering the
camera may cause condensation on the inside of the camera
lens, damage and malfunction of the camera.
l Since the camera is a precision device, do not subject it to
strong impacts. Otherwise, malfunction, fire or electric shock
may occur.
l If mud or snow sticks to or is frozen on the camera, you must
be very careful when removing it. Pour water or lukewarm
water over the camera to remove mud and ice, and wipe it
with a soft, dry cloth.
l Do not try to melt snow or ice off of the camera using heat.
Otherwise, damage to the camera may occur.
l When replacing the fuse, be sure to use a fuse with the
specified rating. Use of a fuse with a different rating may result
in a malfunction.
l If the rear view camera is used for a long time while the
engine is not operated, the battery may become completely
discharged.

NOTE
Do not wipe the camera with alcohol, benzine or paint thinner.
l
Otherwise, discoloration may occur. To remove contamination,
wipe the camera with a cloth moistened with a diluted neutral
detergent and then wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
When waxing the vehicle, be careful not to apply the wax to the
l
camera. If it comes in contact with the camera, moisten a clean
cloth with a diluted neutral detergent to remove the wax.
The camera lens has a hard coating to help prevent scratches.
l
However, when washing the vehicle or cleaning the camera lens,
be careful not to scratch the camera lens. Do not use a washing
brush directly on the camera lens. The image quality of the rear
view camera may deteriorate.
Strong light shined on the camera lens may develop vertical
l
lines around the light source. This is not a malfunction.
Under fluorescent light, the display may flicker. However, this is
l
not a malfunction.
The image of the rear view camera may be slightly different from
l
the actual colour of the objects.
