Rear view camera
The Rear View Camera will activate
when the engine is running and the
shift lever is in the R (Reverse) posi-tion. This is a supplemental system that
provides a view of the area behind
the vehicle through the A/V display
while the vehicle is in the R
(Reverse) position.
Always keep the camera lens
clean. The camera may not work
normally if the lens is covered
with dirt or snow.
NOTICE
The Rear View Camera is not a
safety device. It only serves toassist the driver in identifying
objects directly behind the mid-
dle of the vehicle. The camera
does NOT cover the complete
area behind the vehicle.
WARNING
Never rely solely on the Rear
View Camera when backing-up.
ALWAYS look around your
vehicle to make sure there are
no objects or obstacles before
moving the vehicle in any
direction to prevent a collision.
Always pay close attention
when the vehicle is driven
close to objects, particularly
pedestrians, and especially
children.

Rear parking assist system (if equipped)
The Rear Parking Assist System
assists the driver during reverse
movement of the vehicle by chiming
if any object is sensed within approx-imately 120 cm (50 in) behind the
vehicle. This system is a supplemental sys- tem that senses objects within the
range and location of the sensors, itcannot detect objects in other areaswhere sensors are not installed.
Operation of the Rear ParkingAssist System
Operating condition
This system will activate when backing up with the ignition switch
in the ON position. However, if the
vehicle speed exceeds 5km/h (3
mph), the system may not detect
objects.
If the vehicle speed exceeds 10 km/h (6 mph), the system will not
warn you even though objects aredetected.
When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.

distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effective-

Rear parking assist system precautions
The rear parking assist systemmay not operate consistently in some circumstances depending on
the speed of the vehicle and theshapes of the objects detected.
The rear parking assist system may malfunction if the vehicle
bumper height or sensor installa-tion has been modified or dam-
aged. Any non-factory installed
equipment or accessories may
also interfere with the sensor per-
formance.
The sensor may not recognize objects less than 40 cm (15 in.)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution.
When the sensor is blocked with snow, dirt, debris, or ice, the rear
parking assist system may be inop-
erative until the snow or ice melts,
or the debris is removed. Use a
soft cloth to wipe debris away from
the sensor. Do not push, scratch or strike the
sensor with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could
occur.
Do not spray the sensors or its sur- rounding area directly with a high
pressure washer. Doing so may
cause the sensors to fail to operate
normally.
Your new vehicle warranty does
not cover any accidents or dam-
age to the vehicle or injuries toits occupants related to a Rear
Parking Assist System. Always
drive safely and cautiously.
