image is shown on the center console dis-
play.
•
When backing up, two solid lines are pro-
jected on the screen to show the path that
the vehicle's rear wheels will take. These
lines are affected by movements of the
steering wheel. The vehicle's approximate
outer dimension are shown by two dashed
lines.
•
The graphic lines will not be displayed
when backing up with a trailer that is con-
nected to the vehicle's electrical system.
•
Objects on the ground that are closer than
1 ft (30 centimeters) cannot be detected by
the camera.
•
The camera is active for approx.
5 seconds after the gear selector is moved
to R or until the vehicle's speed exceeds
6 mph (10 km/h).
•
The optional Park Assist sensors and the
parking camera work together and infor-
mation from the sensors is shown graphi-
cally on the display.
•
The graphic lines shown on the screen
when the vehicle backs up can be disabled
in the settings menu.
•
Manual zoom can be selected in the MY
CAR menu.
•
The system can be switched off by press-
ing CAM. By default, the system is acti-
vated when the gear selector is moved to
R. This setting can be changed in the in MY
CAR menu.
•
If there are two cameras installed on the
vehicle*, to switch between cameras, turn
TUNE (at least one of the cameras has to
be active), press CAM repeatedly or use
the center console controls. If the front
camera is on, it overrides the optional park
assist system's visual indicator but there
will still be an audible signal.
Limitations
Even if a fairly small section of the screen image
appears to be obstructed, this may mean that
a relatively large area behind the vehicle is hid-
den and objects there may not be detected
until they are very near the vehicle.
NOTE
Bicycle carriers or other accessories moun-
ted on the trunk may obstruct the camera's
field of view.
Keep in mind
•
Keep the camera's lens free of dirt, ice and
snow. Remove ice and snow carefully to
avoid scratching the lens.
•
Clean the lens regularly with warm water
and a suitable car washing detergent.
