  • When the selector lever is placed in the R (Reverse) position, the screen automatically switches to the rear view camera mode. However, the radio may remain on.
  • When the selector lever is placed in the R (Reverse) position, the rear view camera display may take some time to appear. Objects may be momentarily distorted until the rear view camera screen fully appears. When the selector lever is moved to a position other than R (Reverse), the screen may not change immediately. Objects on the screen may be distorted until they are fully displayed.
  • If the ambient temperature is very high or very low, objects on the display may appear blurry. This condition is normal.
  • When intense light shines directly into the camera, objects may not display clearly.
  • Vertical lines may overlap the objects displayed on the screen. These lines are caused by excessive light reflected from the bumper. This condition is normal.
  • The screen may flicker when exposed to fluorescent lighting. This condition is normal.
  • The color of objects displayed by the rear view camera may differ slightly from the actual color.
  • Objects may appear inaccurately when they are in a dark area or when it is night. This condition is normal.
  • The screen may not display objects if the rear view camera is obstructed by dirt, rain or snow.

    Clean the camera.

  • Do not use alcohol, benzene or thinner to clean the camera. You may discolor the lens. Clean the camera with a cloth dampened with a solution of water and mild detergent, then wipe it with a dry cloth.
  • Do not damage the camera, as the display may be impaired.
  • Do not apply wax to the camera lens. Remove excess wax using a clean cloth dampened with a solution of water and mild detergent.
