Ford TRANSIT 2018 Owner's Manual page 165

Note: If the transmission is in reverse (R)
and the rear cargo door is open, no rear view
camera features display.
Note: When towing, the camera only sees
what you are towing. This might not provide
adequate coverage as it usually provides in
normal operation and you might not see
some objects. In some vehicles, the
guidelines may disappear when you connect
the trailer tow connector.
The camera may not operate correctly
under the following conditions:
• Nighttime or dark areas if one or both
reverse lamps are not operating.
• Mud, water or debris obstructs the
camera's view. Clean the lens with a
soft, lint-free cloth and non-abrasive
cleaner.
• The rear of your vehicle is hit or
damaged, causing the camera to
become misaligned.
Camera Guidelines
Distance markers are only a guide and are
calculated for unloaded vehicles on an
even road surface.
Note: Guidelines are only available when
the transmission is in reverse (R).
Note: Guidelines do not display when the
rear cargo door is ajar.
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 when you
reverse in a straight line. This can be
helpful when backing into a parking
space or aligning your vehicle with
another object behind you.
• Centerline: Helps align the center of
your vehicle with an object (for
example, a trailer).
