{Warning
The Rear Camera Mirror (RCM) has
a limited view. Portions of the road,
vehicles, and other objects may not
be seen. Do not drive or park the
vehicle using only this camera.
Objects may appear closer than

or glance over your shoulder when
making lane changes or merging.

result in injury, death, or vehicle
damage.
The camera that provides the RCM
image is above the license plate, next
to the Rear Vision Camera (RVC).
Troubleshooting
If the tab is in the rearward position
and a blue screen and
dare displayed
in the mirror and the display shuts
off, see your dealer for service. The RCM may not work properly or
display a clear image if:
.
There is glare from the sun or
headlamps. This may obstruct
objects from view.
. Dirt, snow, or other debris blocks
the camera lens. Clean the lens
with a soft damp cloth.
. The back of the vehicle has been
damaged and the position and
mounting angle of the camera has
changed.

are installed and adjusted properly.
If your vehicle has rear head
restraints that fold down, always
return them to the full upright
position whenever an occupant is
seated in the seat.
Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of the restraint is at the same
height as the top of the occupant's
head. This position reduces the
chance of a neck injury in a crash.
