WARNINGS
The rear view camera system is areverse aid supplement device that stillrequires the driver to use it in conjunctionwith the interior and exterior mirrors formaximum coverage.
Objects that are close to either cornerof the bumper or under the bumper,might not be seen on the screen due to thelimited coverage of the camera system.
Back up as slow as possible sincehigher speeds might limit your reactiontime to stop your vehicle.
Use caution when using the rear videocamera and the trunk is ajar. If the trunkis ajar, the camera will be out of position andthe video image may be incorrect. Allguidelines (if enabled) have been removedwhen the trunk is ajar.
Use caution when turning camerafeatures on or off while in reverse (R).Make sure your vehicle is not moving.
The rear view camera system provides avideo image of the area behind your vehicle.The image will display in either the rear viewmirror or the display in the center of theinstrument panel.
During operation, lines will appear in thedisplay that represent your vehicle’s pathand proximity to objects behind your vehicle.
The camera is located on the trunk near thehigh-mount brake lamp.
Using the Rear View Camera System
The rear view camera system displays whatis behind your vehicle when you place thetransmission in reverse (R).
The system uses three types of guides tohelp you see what is behind your vehicle:
•Active guidelines: Show the intendedpath of your vehicle when reversing.
•Fixed guidelines: Show the actual pathyour vehicle is moving in while reversingin a straight line. This can be helpfulwhen backing into a parking space oraligning your vehicle with another objectbehind you.
•Centerline (if applicable): Helps align thecenter of your vehicle with an object(trailer).
Note:If the transmission is in reverse (R) andthe luggage compartment is ajar, no rearview camera features will display.
Note:If the image comes on while thetransmission is not in reverse (R), have thesystem inspected by an authorized dealer.

Active guidelines are only shown with fixedguidelines. To use active guidelines, turn thesteering wheel to point the guidelines towardan intended path. If you change the steeringwheel position while reversing, your vehiclemight deviate from the original intendedpath.
The fixed and active guidelines fade in andout depending on your steering wheelposition. When your steering wheel positionis straight, the active guidelines are notvisible.
Always use caution while reversing. Objectsin the red zone are closest to your vehicleand objects in the green zone are fartheraway. Objects are getting closer to yourvehicle as they move from the green zoneto the yellow or red zones. Use the side viewmirrors and rear view mirror to get bettercoverage on both sides and rear of yourvehicle.
Enhanced Park Aids
Note:The reverse sensing system is noteffective at speeds above 3 mph (5 km/h)and may not detect certain angular ormoving objects.
The system uses red, yellow and greenhighlights that appear on top of the videoimage when the reverse sensing systemdetects an object. The alert highlights theclosest object detected. You can disable thereverse sensing alert if you have enhancedpark aids enabled, you will still see thedisplayed highlighted areas.
