Your vehicle may be equipped with the Surround
View Camera system that allows you to see an
on-screen image of the surroundings and Top View
of your vehicle whenever the gear selector is put
into REVERSE or a different view is selected
through the touchscreen buttons. The Top View of
the vehicle will show which doors are open. The
image will be displayed on the Uconnect display
along with a caution note “Check Entire
Surroundings” across the top of the screen. After
five seconds, this note will disappear. The
Surround View Camera system is comprised of four
sequential cameras located in the front grille, rear
liftgate and side mirrors.

mable settings that may be selected through the
Uconnect system Ú page 204.
Press this button on the touchscreen to
enter the Surround View Camera menu in
the Uconnect system.
When the vehicle is shifted into REVERSE, the Rear
View or Top View is the default view of the system. When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with
camera delay turned on, the camera image will
continue to be displayed for up to 10 seconds
unless the vehicle speed exceeds 8 mph
(13 km/h), the vehicle is shifted into PARK or the
ignition is placed in the OFF position. There is a
touchscreen X button to disable the display of the
camera image.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with
camera delay turned off, the Surround View
Camera mode is exited and the last known screen
appears again.
When enabled, active guidelines are overlaid on
the image to illustrate the width of the vehicle,
including the side view mirrors and its projected
backup path based on the steering wheel position.
Different colored zones indicate the distance to
the rear of the vehicle.
The following table shows the approximate
distances for each zone:

DRIVING TIPS
ON-ROAD DRIVING TIPS
Utility vehicles have higher ground clearance and a
narrower track to make them capable of
performing in a wide variety of off-road
applications. Specific design characteristics give
them a higher center of gravity than conventional
passenger cars.
An advantage of the higher ground clearance is a
better view of the road, allowing you to anticipate
problems. They are not designed for cornering at
the same speeds as conventional passenger cars
any more than low-slung sports cars are designed
to perform satisfactorily in off-road conditions.
Avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. As with
other vehicles of this type, failure to operate this
vehicle correctly may result in loss of control or
vehicle rollover.4
