If an object is detected behind the rear bumper while the vehicle is in REVERSE, a warning will
display in the instrument cluster and a tone will sound, (closer the object the faster the tone) that
changes speed depending on the distance of the object from the bumper, will sound.
When the Instrument Cluster reads either “Clean Sensor” or “Blinded”, clean off the bumper
sensors to see if the condition is corrected.

REVERSE. The ParkView® Rear Back-Up Camera image will be displayed on the radio display
screen, located on the center stack of the instrument panel.
If the radio display screen appears foggy, clean the camera lens located on the liftgate.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up; even when using the ParkView® Rear Back-Up
Camera. Always check carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to check for pedestrians,
animals, other vehicles, obstructions, or blind spots before backing up. You must continue to
pay attention while backing up. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
BLIND SPOT MONITORING WITH REAR
CROSS PATH
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system uses two radar-based sensors, located inside the rear
bumper fascia, to detect Highway licensable vehicles (automobiles, trucks, motorcycles etc.) that
enter the blind spot zones from the rear/front/side of the vehicle.
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system warning light, located in the outside mirrors, will
illuminate if a vehicle moves into a blind spot zone.
The BSM system can also be configured to sound an audible (chime) alert and mute the radio to
notify you of objects that have entered the detection zones.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

NOTE:
Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 12° F (7° C) of air temperature change.
Keep this in mind when checking tire pressure inside a garage, especially in the Winter. Example:
If garage temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the outside temperature is 32°F (0°C), then the cold
tire inflation pressure should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa), which equals 1 psi (7 kPa) for every
12°F (7°C) for this outside temperature condition.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures
and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable
system operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement equipment that is not
of the same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use
tire sealant from a can, or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage
to the sensors may result.

-SeatBeltReminderLight
When the ignition switch is first turned to the ON/RUN position, this light will turn on for four to
eight seconds as a bulb check. During the bulb check, if the driver's seat belt is unbuckled, a
chime will sound. After the bulb check or when driving, if the driver or front passenger seat belt
remains unbuckled, the Seat Belt Indicator Light will flash or remain on continuously. Refer to
“Seat Belt Systems” in “Things To Know Before Starting” in the OM on your DVD for further
information.
-BrakeWarningLight
This light monitors various brake functions, including brake fluid level and parking brake appli-
cation. If the brake light turns on it may indicate that the parking brake is applied, that the brake
fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with the anti-lock brake system reservoir.
