display
Shift the selector lever or shift lever to
reverse (R) with the ignition switched

view monitor display.
IMPORTANT When parking, take the
utmost care over obstacles that may be
above or under the camera range.
IMPORTANT Always use extreme
caution and verify the real conditions of
the area behind the vehicle with you
own eyes. Reversing while looking only
at the screen is dangerous and can
lead to an accident or collision with an
object. The rear-view monitor is simply
a system to aid reversing. The images
on the screen can show a situation that
differs from the real one.
When the display is cold, the images
could scroll on the monitor or the
screen and could be more blurred than
usual, making it difficult to check the
conditions of the area around the
vehicle. Always use extreme caution
and verify the real conditions of the area
behind the vehicle with you own eyes.
IMPORTANT Do not apply excessive
force to the camera. You could alter the
position and angle of the camera. Do
not disassemble, modify or remove it as
this could compromise the hermetic
seal.
IMPORTANT The camera cover is
made of plastic. Do not apply
degreasing agents, organic solvents,
wax, or glass coating agents to thecamera cover. If any are spilled on the
cover, wipe off with a soft cloth
immediately.
IMPORTANT Do not rub the camera
cover forcefully with an abrasive or hard
brush. The camera cover or lens may
be scratched which might affect the
images.
IMPORTANT If water, snow or mud is
deposited on the camera lens, clean it
with a soft cloth. If this does not clean
it, use a mild detergent.
IMPORTANT If the camera is subjected
to abrupt temperature changes (from
hot to cold or vice versa), the rear-view
monitor may not work properly.
IMPORTANT When replacing the tires,
consult an Abarth Dealership.
Replacing the tyres could result in
deviation of the guide lines which
appear on the display.
IMPORTANT If the vehicle's front, side,
or rear has been involved in a collision,
the alignment of the rear view parking
camera (location, installation angle) may
have deviated. Always consult Abarth
Dealership to have the vehicle
inspected.
IMPORTANT If “No Video Signal
Available” is indicated in the display,
there could be a problem with the
