fig . 92. Orientation lines and colored
surfaces are projected in the area shown, which
can help you with parking and maneuvering. Ob-
jec t s that are located in an area that is not cap-
tured by the camera @ ¢ fig . 92 and that are
closer to the bumper will not appea r on the navi-
gation system display .
We recommend that you practice park ing with
the rearview camera in a traffic -free location or
parking lot to become familiar with the system,
the orientation lines, a nd their funct ion . There
should be suff icient light and good weather con-
d itions w hen do ing so.
In the navigat io n system display, objects or
vehicles appear closer or fu rther away if:
Objects or vehicles appear closer or farther away
in the navigation system if :
- you are driving in reverse gear from a level sur -
face onto an incl ine, or a downward slope,
- you are driving in reverse gear toward protrud-
ing objects .
The accuracy of the orientation lines and blue
surfaces diminishes if:
- the rearv iew came ra does not provide a reliab le
image, for example, in poor visibility cond itions
or if the lens is d irty,
- the image on the screen is not visible due to
sun g lare and reflect ion.
Caring for th e rearview cam era lens
The rearview camera is located in the center of
the vehicle above the rear license plate bracket.
In order for the rearview camera to function
properly, the camera lens must be kept clean and
free of snow and ice.
- Dampen the lens with a househo ld alcoho l-
based glass cleane r, and clea n the lens with a
dry cloth .
- Remove snow with a hand brush and ice pref -
erably with a de- icing spray ¢ (j) .

can disappea r from the system 's detection
range as they a re approached and will not
cont inue to be s ignaled . Object s such as
barrie r cha ins, t railer draw ba rs, narrow
