SURROUND VIEW CAMERA SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with the Surround View
Camera system that allows you to see an on-screen
image of the surroundings and Top View of your vehicle
whenever the gear selector is put into REVERSE or a
different view is selected through the touchscreen but-
tons. The Top View of the vehicle will show which doors
are open. The image will be displayed on the touch-
screen display along with a caution note "Check Entire
Surroundings" across the top of the screen. After five
seconds, this note will disappear. The Surround View
Camera system is comprised of four sequential cam-
eras located in the front grille, rear liftgate and side
mirrors.
Automatic Activation Of The Surround View Camera
When the vehicle is shifted into REVERSE, the Rear
View and Top View will automatically be displayed on
the Uconnect touchscreen.
The Surround View Camera will also automatically acti-
vate when the gear selector is in DRIVE or NEUTRAL
and the system detects obstacles it its path. Camera
view display will depend on the location of the detected
obstacle.

Uconnect system.

When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with cam-
era delay turned on, the camera image will continue to
be displayed for up to 10 seconds unless the vehicle
speed exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h), the vehicle is shifted
into PARK or the ignition is placed in the OFF position.
There is a touchscreen X button to disable the display
of the camera image.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with cam-
era delay turned off, the Surround View Camera mode
is exited and the last known screen appears again.
When enabled, active guidelines are overlaid on the
image to illustrate the width of the vehicle, including
the side view mirrors and its projected back up path
based on the steering wheel position.
