180 DEGREE CAMERA WARNING:
The rear view camera
system is a reverse aid supplement
device that still requires the driver to use
it in conjunction with the interior and
exterior mirrors for maximum coverage. WARNING:
Objects that are close
to either corner of the bumper or under
the bumper, might not be seen on the
screen due to the limited coverage of the
camera system. WARNING:
Use caution when
turning camera features on or off when
the transmission is not in park (P). Make
sure your vehicle is not moving. WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death.
Note: Use caution using the 180 view when
any of the doors are ajar. If a door is ajar, the
camera will be out of position and the video
image may be incorrect.
Front View Camera WARNING:
The front camera
system still requires the driver to use it
in conjunction with looking out of your
vehicle.
Note: The system turns off the front video
image when your vehicle is in motion at low
speed, except when in reverse (R).
Note: The area displayed on the screen may
vary according to your vehicle's orientation
or road condition.
Note: The camera system may not operate
correctly if mud, water or debris obstructs
the camera's view. You can clean the lens
with a soft, lint-free cloth and non-abrasive
cleaner or by using your front washer.
