The Rear-Camera Display will activate
when the back-up light is ON with the
ignition switch ON and the shift lever in
the R (Reverse) position.

that displays a veiw from behind the vehi-
cle through the UVO audio or navigation
display while backing-up.Always keep the camera lens clean. If
lens is covered with foreign matter, the
camera may not operate normally.
REAR-CAMERA DISPLAY (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING - Rear Camera
Display
The rear view camera is not a safe-
ty device. It only serves to assist
the driver in identifying objects
directly behind the middle of the
vehicle, nor is it a substitute for
proper and safe backing-up proce-
dures. The camera does NOT cover
the complete area behind the vehi-
cle. Objects can be much closer
than they appear in the display
screen and can be distorted in both
size and proportion. The Rear-
Camera Display may not display
every object behind the vehicle.
WARNING - Backing &using camera
Never rely solely on the rear view
camera when backing. You must
always use methods of viewing the
area behind you including looking
over both shoulders as well as con-
tinuously checking all three rear
view mirrors. Due to the difficulty of
ensuring that the area behind you
remains clear, always back slowly
and stop immediately if you even
suspect that a person, and espe-
cially a child, might be behind you.
