show a situation that differs from the
actual view.
The field of view varies depending on
the vehicle and the road conditions. The
field of view is limited. Objects below
the bumper or around its ends may not
be displayed. The distance displayed by the image
differs from the real one as the rear
parking camera is equipped with a
special lens.
The camera could capture any
non-standard accessories installed on
the vehicle. Do not install non-standard
accessories that could interfere with the
camera’s view, such as lights or
reflectors.

Caution!
To avoid vehicle damage, ParkView
should only be used as a parking aid. The
ParkView camera is unable to view every
obstacle or object in your drive path.
To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle
must be driven slowly when using ParkView
to be able to stop in time when an obstacle
is seen. It is recommended that the driver
look frequently over his/her shoulder when
using ParkView.
Looking At The Display
The width of the vehicles guide lines
(yellow) are displayed on the screen as
a reference to show the width of the
vehicle compared to the width of the
parking space to be entered in reverse.
Vehicle Width Guide Lines
(Yellow): these guide lines serve as a
reference showing the width of the
vehicle.
Distance Guide Lines : these lines
indicate the approximate distance of a
point measured from the rear of the
vehicle (from the end of the bumper).
The red and yellow line indicates the
pointsatabout19in(50cm),forthe
red line and 39 in (1 m) for the yellow
line, from the rear bumper (central point
of each line).
Warning!
Drivers must be careful when backing up
even when using the ParkView Rear Back
Up Camera. Always check carefully behind
your vehicle, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles,
obstructions, or blind spots before backing
up. You are responsible for the safety of
your surroundings and must continue to
pay attention while backing up. Failure to
do so can result in serious injury or death.
Rear-View Monitor
Operation
The operating modes of the rear-view
monitor when the vehicle is in reverse
vary depending on traffic, road and
vehicle conditions. Also the amount of
turning and the duration of the
maneuver vary depending on the
conditions, therefore is important to
check the effective situation and adapt
the steering.
Note: The images from the rear
parking camera shown on the monitor
are reversed (mirror image).

Give consideration to the below
information before you use the
rear-view camera:
1. Put the gear selector in the Reverse
(R) position to switch the display to
rear-view camera mode.
2. Check the surrounding conditions
and begin backing up.3. Once the vehicle starts to enter the
parking space, proceed slowly in
reverse keeping the vehicle width guide
lines away from the two sides of the
parking space.
4. Continue to make corrections with
the steering wheel until the vehicle
width guide lines are parallel with the
two sides of the parking space.
5. Once they are parallel, straighten the
steering wheel and reverse slowly into
the parking space. Continue to check
the vehicle’s surroundings and stop in
the best position possible (if the parking
space has dividing lines, check that the
vehicle width guide lines are parallel
with them).
6. When the gear selector is moved
from the Reverse (R) position and put in
any other position, the screen returns to
the previous display mode.
Note:
Since there may be some differences
between the displayed image, as
indicated below, and the real
conditions, always check with your own

eyes that the area behind the vehicle
and the surrounding area are
completely safe:
In the image of the parking space
(or garage) shown below, although the
rear of the vehicle and the distance
guide lines seem parallel on the
monitor, on the ground they may not
be.
When you enter a parking space
with a dividing line only on one side,
the dividing line and the vehicle width
guide line may appear parallel on the
monitor but they may not be so on the
ground.
Road Conditions And
Displayed Image
There are some differences between
the road and what is actually shown on
the display.
The different perception of distance
could lead to an accident. The
conditions that can lead to a different
perception of distance, listed below,
must be taken into consideration. When The Vehicle Slopes Due To
The Weight Of Passengers And
Load:
When the vehicle is rear-heavy, the
object on the screen seems to be
further than it really is.
When The Road Behind The Vehicle
Slopes Steeply:
When the vehicle is on a steep uphill
(downhill) slope, the object on the
screen seems to be further than it
really is.GUID-07080913991991Loaded Vehicle Camera Angle

Three-Dimensional Object Behind
The Vehicle:
Since the distance guide line display is
based on a flat surface, the distance to
a three-dimensional object on the
screen differs from the real distance.
Adjusting The Image
Quality
The image quality can be adjusted with
the gear selector in the Reverse (R)
position.
Four adjustments can be made:
brightness, contrast, tint and color. Give
attention to the vehicle’s surroundings
while making adjustments:1. Select the icon on the top left of the
screen to display the tabs.
2. Select the desired tab.
3. Use the cursor to adjust the
brightness, contrast, tint and color. If a
reset is needed, press the reset button.
4. Select the icon on the top left of the
screen to close the tabs.
Warning!
Adjusting the rear-view camera image
quality must always be done when the
vehicle is stationary. Do not adjust the
rear-view camera image quality while
vehicle driving. Adjusting the image quality
(brightness, contrast, color and tint) of the
rear-view camera while driving the vehicle
is dangerous since it could distract the
driver and cause a serious accident.

STARTING AND OPERATING

INTRODUCTION
Be extremely careful and prevent injury
to yourself and others or damage to
your vehicle when using this Owner’s
Manual for inspection and maintenance.
If you are unsure about any procedure it
describes, we strongly urge you to have
a reliable and qualified service shop
perform the work, preferably at your
Authorized Dealer.
Factory-trained FCA technicians and
genuine FCA parts are best for your
vehicle. Without this expertise and the
parts that have been designed and
made especially for your vehicle,
inadequate, incomplete, and insufficient
servicing may result in problems. This
could lead to vehicle damage or an
accident and injuries.
For expert advice and quality service,
contact your Authorized Dealer.
To continue New Vehicle Limited
Warranty eligibility and to protect your
investment, it is your responsibility to
properly maintain your vehicle
according to factory recommended
schedules outlined in this Owner’s
Manual. As part of this you must keep
your maintenance records, receipts,
repair orders and any other documents
as evidence this maintenance was
performed. You must present these
documents, should any New Vehicle
Limited Warranty coverage
disagreement occur. Failure to do so
can result in your New Vehicle LimitedWarranty being voided either in whole
or in part.
This evidence may consist of the
following:
The FCA Scheduled Maintenance
Record, refer to the Warranty Booklet,
must be completely filled out showing
mileage, repair order number, date for
each service, and signed by a qualified
automotive service technician who
service vehicles.
Original copies of repair orders or
other receipts that include the mileage
and date the vehicle was serviced.
Each receipt should be signed by a
qualified automotive service technician.
For self maintenance, a statement
that you completed the maintenance
yourself, displaying mileage and the
date the work was performed. Also,
receipts for the replacement parts (fluid,
filters, etc.) indicating the date and
mileage must accompany this
statement.
Note:
If you elect to perform maintenance
yourself or have your vehicle serviced at
a location other than an Authorized
Dealer, FCA requires that all fluids, parts
and materials must meet FCA
standards for durability and
performance as described in this
Owner’s Manual. Claims against the warranty resulting
from lack of maintenance, as opposed
to defective materials or authorized FCA
workmanship, will not be honored.
Any auto repair shop using parts
equivalent to your vehicle's original
equipment may perform maintenance.
But we recommend that it always be
done by an Authorized Dealer using
genuine FCA parts. Selecting
“Maintenance Monitor” enables the
system to notify you of your vehicle's
approaching inspection/servicing
period.
Owner Maintenance
Precautions
The owner or a qualified service
technician should make these vehicle
inspections at the indicated intervals to
ensure safe and dependable operation.
Bring any problem to the attention of an
Authorized Dealer or qualified service
technician as soon as possible.
When refueling perform inspection
of:
Brake and clutch fluid level
Engine coolant level
Engine oil level
Washer fluid level
At least monthly perform inspection
of:
Tire inflation pressures
