WARNING - Backing Up &
Using Camera
Never rely solely on the rear
view camera display when
backing up. Prior to entering
your vehicle always do a visual
check of the area behind your
vehicle, and before backing up
be aware of your surroundings
and supplement the rear view
camera by looking over your
shoulders and checking your
rear view mirrors. Due to the dif-
ficulty of ensuring that the area
behind you remains clear,

immediately if you even suspect
that a person, and especially a
