of traffic to the side and rear under the following
conditions:
•Your vehicle’s suspension has been altered,
changing the height of the vehicle.
•Your tires are over or under inflated.
•Your tires or wheels are of varied size or construction.
3WARNING

change lanes before doing so may result in

of your vehicle, and behind you for other
vehicles before changing lanes.

on the screen may seem to appear closer than the
actual distances when the rear of your vehicle is more
