REAR VIEW CAMERA

WARNINGS
The rear view camera system is a
reverse aid supplement device that
still requires the driver to use it in
conjunction with the interior and exterior
mirrors for maximum coverage.
Objects that are close to either
corner of the bumper or under the
bumper, might not be seen on the
screen due to the limited coverage of the
camera system.
Back up as slow as possible since
higher speeds might limit your
reaction time to stop the vehicle.
Use caution when using the rear
video camera and the liftgate is ajar.
If the liftgate is ajar, the camera will
be out of position and the video image may
be incorrect. All guidelines (if enabled)
have been removed when the liftgate is
ajar.
Use caution when turning camera
features on or off while in R
(Reverse). Make sure the vehicle is
not moving.
The rear view camera system provides a
video image of the area behind the vehicle.
During operation, lines appear in the
display which represent your vehicle's path
and proximity to objects behind the vehicle.

Using the Rear View Camera
System
The rear view camera system displays
what is behind your vehicle when you place
the transmission in R (Reverse).
The system uses three types of guides to
help you see what is behind your vehicle:
•
•
•
157
Active guidelines: Show the intended
path of your vehicle when reversing.
This feature is only available on
vehicles with active park assist.
Fixed guidelines: Show the actual path
your vehicle is moving in while reversing
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).
