MIRRORS
Automatic Dimming Mirror With Rear View
Camera Display
This mirror automatically adjusts for headlight glare
from vehicles behind you.
The mirror head can be manually adjusted up, down,
left, and right. The mirror should be adjusted to center
on the view through the rear window.
When the vehicle is placed into REVERSE, a video
display within the mirror illuminates to display the
image generated by the rear view camera located on the
trunk lid below the brake light.NOTE:
The auto dimming feature is also disabled to
improve rear view viewing while vehicle is in RE-
VERSE.
Outside Mirrors
To receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside mirrors
to center on the adjacent lane of traffic and a slight
overlap of the view obtained from the inside mirror.
NOTE: The passenger side convex outside mirror will
give a much wider view to the rear, and especially of the
lane next to your vehicle.

System Maintenance
In winter, the climate control system must be turned on
at least once a month for about ten minutes. Have the
system inspected at an authorized dealer before the
summer.
NOTE: The system uses R-1234yf refrigerant which
does not pollute the environment in the event of
accidental leakage. Under no circumstances should you
use R-134a fluid which, in addition to being incompat-
ible with the system’s components, contributes greatly
to the greenhouse effect.

•The variation in sensor position, caused by variation
in ride (due to suspension component wear), chang-
ing tires, overloaded vehicle, or tuning that lowers
the vehicle, for example, may affect parking sensor
system performance.
NOTE: The sensor must be free from mud, dirt snow or
ice in order for the system to operate correctly. Be
careful not to scratch or damage the sensors while
cleaning them. Avoid using dry, rough or hard cloths.
The sensors must be washed using clean water, with the
addition of car shampoo if necessary. When using
special washing equipment such as high pressure jets or
steam cleaning, clean the sensors very quickly keeping
the jet more than 4 inches (10 cm) away. Also, do not
apply stickers to the sensors.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up even
when using the Parking Sensor system. Always
check carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to
check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, ob-
structions, or blind spots before backing up. You
are responsible for the safety of your surroundings
(Continued)
WARNING! (Continued)
and must continue to pay attention while backing
up. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or
death.
CAUTION!
•The Parking Sensor system is only a parking aid
and it is unable to recognize every obstacle,
including small obstacles. Parking curbs might be
temporarily detected or not detected at all. Ob-
stacles located above or below the sensors will
not be detected when they are in close proximity.
• The vehicle must be driven slowly when using
the Parking Sensor system in order to be able to
stop in time when an obstacle is detected. It is
recommended that the driver looks over his/her
shoulder when using the Parking Sensor system.
PARKVIEW REAR BACK UP CAMERA
