jects directly behind the vehicle, to help
avoid damaging the vehicle.
. The system cannot completely eliminate
blind spots and may not detect every
object. It does not warn of moving
objects.
. Underneath the bumper and the corner
areas of the bumper cannot be viewed on
the RearView Monitor because of its
monitoring range limitation. The system
will not detect small objects below the
bumper, and may not detect objects
close to the bumper or on the ground.
. Objects viewed in the RearView Monitor
differ from actual distance because a
wide-angle lens is used.
. Objects in the RearView Monitor will
appear visually opposite, similar to than
when viewed in the rear view and outside
mirrors

closed when backing up.
. Do not put anything on the RearView
camera. The RearView camera is installed
above the license plate. .

tion or cause damage resulting in a fire
