may not display instantly due to the
audio system booting up.
2 ~ 4 seconds may be required
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. If
lens is covered with foreign matter,
the camera may not operate normally.

tute for proper and safe backing-up
procedures. Always drive safely and

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.
