left-hand and right-hand outside
rearview mirrors. The mirrors can be
adjusted remotely with the remote
switch. The mirror heads can be fold-

are closer than they appear.
Use your interior rearview mirror or

not adjust the mirror by force. Use an
approved spray de-icer (not radiator
antifreeze) to release the frozen
mechanism or move the vehicle to a
warm place and allow the ice to melt.

(Reverse) position. This system is a supplemental sys-
tem that shows behind the vehicle
through the audio screen while back-
ing up unless equipped with a navi-
gation system, then will display on
the navigation screen.

mized for driving mode unlike park-
ing mode image. All three conditions
must be met to operate driving assist
mode.

WARNING - Backing &
using camera
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 continuously checking all
three rear view mirrors. Due to
the difficulty 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.
