Visual park aid alert (if equipped)
Visual park aid alert allows the driver to see the area that is causing the
reverse sensing system to beep. The visual alerts are red, yellow or green
highlights which appear on top of the video image when an object is
detected by the reverse sensing system. The visual alert will highlight
the closest object detected by the reverse sensing system. The reverse
sensing alert can be disabled and if visual park aid alert is enabled,
highlighted areas will still be displayed.
To turn this feature on or off when the vehicle is not in R (Reverse), do
the following on the touchscreen:
1. Select Menu
2. Select Vehicle
3. Select Rear View Camera
The visual park aid alert options are ON and OFF.
Note:The reverse sensing system is not effective at speeds above 3 mph
(5 km/h) and may not detect certain angular or moving objects.
Manual zoom
The manual zoom feature assists drivers with connecting their vehicle to
a trailer for the purpose of towing. It allows the driver to manually zoom
closer to an object behind the vehicle. The zoomed image keeps the
bumper in the image to provide a reference.
Press
orto manually adjust the zoom levels. You can choose from
OFF, Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3. The selected level will appear between
the buttons (i.e. Level 1). When activating manual zoom mode, the
system always starts from OFF.
When enabled, Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 will only be active while the
vehicle is in R (Reverse). The feature disables outside of R (Reverse)
and must be re-enabled the next time the vehicle shifts into R (Reverse).
When manual zoom is enabled, only
the centerline will be shown.

Rear camera delay
After shifting out of R (Reverse) and into any gear other than P (Park),
the image will remain until the vehicle speed reaches five mph (8 km/h).
This will only occur if the rear camera delay feature is on, or until any
radio button is selected.
The default setting for the rear camera delay is OFF. To turn this feature
on or off when the vehicle is not in R (Reverse), do the following:
1. Select Menu
2. Select Vehicle
3. Select Rear View Camera
The rear camera delay options are ON and OFF.
The camera lens for the reverse camera system is located on the liftgate.
Keep the lens clean so the video image remains clear and undistorted.
Clean the lens with a soft, lint-free cloth and non-abrasive cleaner.
When towing, the reverse camera system will only see what is being
towed behind the vehicle. This might not provide adequate coverage as it
usually provides in normal operation and some objects might not be
seen.
Active guidelines, fixed guidelines, visual park aid alert and manual zoom
features are only available when the vehicle is in R (Reverse).
If the vehicle is in R (Reverse) and the liftgate is ajar, no rear video
camera features will be displayed. A message will be displayed on the
touchscreen if the liftgate is ajar.
After activating or deactivating a rear video camera feature, the
touchscreen will show a preview of the feature(s) selected.
Note:If the camera system image is not clear or seems distorted, it may
be covered with water droplets, snow, mud or any other substance. If
this occurs, clean the camera lens before using the camera system.
WARNING: The rearview camera system is a reverse aid
supplement device that still requires the driver to use it in
conjunction with the rearview mirror and the side mirrors for maximum
coverage.

Charging
Note:The vehicle must be in (P)
Park to charge.
To charge your high-voltage battery:
1. Put the vehicle in (P) park and
power down the vehicle.
2. Press the indentation located on
the charge port door and the door
will rotate open.
3. Plug the charging coupler into the vehicles charge port receptacle and
make sure the button “clicks” confirming that it is completely engaged.
4. Verify that the cord acknowledgement feature activates. This indicates
the beginning of a normal charge cycle.
5. If using a 240 volt charging station, follow the instructions on the
charge station to begin the charging process.
When charging, the light ring will display how far along the charge is:
• When the top right quadrant is pulsing the charge is between
0–25 percent.
• When the top right quadrant is solidly lit and the bottom right
quadrant is pulsing the charge is between 25–50 percent.
• When both right side quadrants are solidly lit and the bottom left
quadrant is pulsing the charge is between 50–75 percent.
• When three quadrants are solidly lit and the top left quadrant is
pulsing the charge is between 75–100 percent.
• When the entire ring is solidly lit, the charge is complete.
Note: The illuminated ring will shut off one minute after reaching a full
charge.
Note: If a vehicle charging system fault is detected at any point in a
charge cycle the entire light ring will flash continuously for one minute
and then shut off. If this happens unplug, and then re-plug the charging
coupler into the charge port receptacle. If the problem persists contact
your authorized dealer.
