The camera lens for the reverse camera system is located on the tailgate,
near the tailgate handle. Keep the lens clean so the video image remains clear
and undistorted. Clean the lens with a soft, lint-free cloth and non-abrasive
cleaner. If the reverse camera system image is not clear or seems distorted
it may be covered with water droplets, snow, mud or any other substance. If this
occurs, clean the camera lens before using the reverse camera system.
The reverse camera system is not a replacement for the rear view and side view mirrors. Always make sure there are
no people or objects behind the vehicle before using reverse. For complete details on the reverse camera system,
please consult your Owner's Guide.
