helps you handle the problem as it
occu rs, preventing or limiting costly

go of f . For more inf ormation on the
instrument panel indicators, see page .

Whenever you shif t to reverse (R)
with the ignition switch in the ON
(II) position, the rear view is shown
on the navigation system screen.
For the best picture, always keep the
rearview camera clean, and do not
cover the camera lens. To avoid
scratching the lens when you clean it,
use a moist, sof t cloth.Since the rearview camera display
area is limited, you should always
back up slowly and caref ully, and
look behind you f or obstacles.
When in reverse, the navigation
buttons are locked out, except the
interf ace dial on the dashboard. Turn
the dial clockwise to make the
camera image brighter, and counter-
