area roughly corresponds to the area in¢ fig. 91
and (D ~ fig . 92. Orientation lines and colored
surfaces are projected in the area shown, which
can help you with parking and maneuvering. Ob

We recommend that you practice park ing with
the rearview camera in a traffic -free location o r
parking lot to become familiar w ith the system,
the orientation lines, a nd their funct ion . There
should be suff icient light and good weather con
d itions w hen do ing so.
In the nav igat io n system display, objects or
vehicles appear closer or fu rther away if:
Objects or vehicles appear closer or farther away in the navigation system if :
- you are driving in reverse gear from a level sur
face onto an incl ine, or a downward slope,
- you are driving in reverse gear toward protrud-
ing objects .
The accuracy o f the orientation lines and blue
surfaces diminishes if:
- the rearv iew came ra does not p rovide a reliab le
image, for example, in poor visibility cond itions
or if the lens is d irty,
- the image on the screen is not visible due to
s u n g lare and reflect ion.
Caring for th e rearvi ew cam era len s

the vehicle above the rear license p late bracket.
In order for the rearview camera to function

range as they a re approached and w ill not
cont in ue to be s ignaled . Objec ts such as
barrie r cha ins, trailer draw ba rs, narrow
