with the ignition switch on and the
shift lever in the R (Reverse) posi-
tion.
Note- during initial start up, system
may not display instantly due to the
audio system booting up.

before displaying during initial
reverse selection. This occurs when
starting and immediately shifting to
reverse.
This system is a supplemental sys-
tem that shows behind the vehicle
through the UVO audio or navigation
display backing-up.Always keep the camera lens clean.

the camera may not operate normal-
ly.

every object behind the vehicle.
REARVIEW CAMERA (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING - Backing Up &

Never rely solely on the rear view
camera when backing up. Prior
to entering your vehicle always
do a visual check of the area
behind your vehicle, and before
backing up be aware of your sur-
roundings and supplement the
rear view camera by looking over
your shoulders and checking
your rear view mirrors. Due to the
difficulty of ensuring that the
area behind you remains clear,
always back up slowly and stop
immediately if you even suspect
that a person, and especially a
child, might be behind you.
