The rear camera view is restricted. You cannot see
the corner ends of the bumper or what is underneath
the bumper. Its unique le ns also makes objects
appear closer or farther than they actually are.

up. Certain conditions (such as weather, lighting, and
high temperatures) may also restrict the rear view. Do
not rely on the rearview display which does not give
you all information about conditions at the back of
your vehicle.
If the rear camera lens is covered with dirt or
moisture, activate the rearview camera washer
