The system uses three types of guides to
help you see what is behind your vehicle:
•
Active guidelines: Show the intended
path of your vehicle when reversing.
•
Fixed guidelines: Show the actual path
your vehicle is moving in while reversing
in a straight line. This can be helpful
when backing into a parking space or
aligning your vehicle with another
object behind you.
•
Centerline: Helps align the center of
your vehicle with an object (for
example, a trailer).
Note:
If the transmission is in reverse (R)
and the luggage compartment is ajar, no
rear view camera features display.
Note:
When towing, the camera only sees
what is towed behind your vehicle. This
might not provide adequate coverage as it
usually provides in normal operation and
some objects might not be seen. In some
vehicles, the guidelines may disappear once
the trailer tow connector is engaged.
The camera may not operate correctly
under the following conditions:
•
Nighttime or dark areas if one or both
reverse lamps are not operating.
•
Mud, water or debris obstructs the
camera's view. Clean the lens with a
soft, lint-free cloth and non-abrasive
cleaner.
•
The rear of your vehicle is hit or
damaged, causing the camera to
become misaligned.

Active guidelines only show with fixed
guidelines. To use active guidelines, turn
the steering wheel to point the guidelines
toward an intended path. If the steering
wheel position changes while reversing,
your vehicle might deviate from the original
intended path.
The fixed and active guidelines fade in and
out depending on the steering wheel
position. The active guidelines do not
display when the steering wheel position
is straight.
