Features of your vehicle
The Rear-Camera Display will acti-
vate when the back-up light is ON
with the ignition switch ON and the
shift lever in the R (Reverse) position.
This system is a supplemental sys-
tem that displays a veiw from behind
the vehicle through the UVO audio or
navigation display while backing-up.Always keep the camera lens clean. If
lens is covered with foreign matter,
the camera may not operate normally.
REAR-CAMERA DISPLAY (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING - Rear Camera
Display
The rear view camera is not a
safety device. It only serves to
assist the driver in identifying
objects directly behind the mid-
dle of the vehicle, nor is it a sub-
stitute for proper and safe back-
ing-up procedures. The camera
does NOT cover the complete
area behind the vehicle. Objects
can be much closer than they
appear in the display screen
and can be distorted in both
size and proportion. The Rear-
Camera Display may not display
every object behind the vehicle.
WARNING - Backing &using cam-
era
Never rely solely on the rear
view camera when backing. You
must always use methods of
viewing the area behind you
including looking over both
shoulders as well as continu-
ously checking all three rear
view mirrors. Due to the difficul-
ty of ensuring that the area
behind you remains clear,
always back slowly and stop
immediately if you even suspect
that a person, and especially a
child, might be behind you.
