1About Your Rearview Camera
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 conditions (such as weather, lighting, and
high temperatures) 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.
The rearview display is turned on every time you shift to
(R .
The rearview mirror gets hot if the rearview display is
used for an extended period.
To turn the guidelines on or off, press and hold the
auto button for about three seconds.
If you turn the guidelines off, they remain off until
you turn them back on.
