The rear camera view is restricted. You cannot
see the corner ends of the bumper or what is
underneath the bumper. Its unique lens also
makes objects appear closer or farther than they
actually are.
Visually confirm that it is safe to drive before
backing up. Certain conditi ons (such as weather,
lighting, and high temperat ures) may also restrict
the rear view. Do not rely on the rearview display
which does not give you all information about
conditions at the back of your vehicle.
If the camera lens is covered with dirt or
moisture, use a soft, moist cloth to keep the lens
clean and free of debris.R

• Checking both ways at intersections with poor visibility.
• Parallel-parking in a parking sp ace marked with parking lines.
• Checking for obstacles in front of the vehicle.
• Checking for obstacles at the rear of the vehicle.
• Checking for obstacles around the front right and left sides of the vehicle.1Surround View Camera*

unobstructed. The rearview camera has a lens
that makes distances appear different than they

and look behind you for obstacles.

eliminate all blind spots. Visually confirm safety
around the vehicle with yo ur own eyes and the
mirrors. Do not rely on the camera view.
