default camera and appears first each time the camera view
appears.
Unpair : Removes the paired camera.
Automatic Activation : Enables the Garmin navigation device to
display the default camera view automatically each time the
navigation device is turned on. If the navigation device is
connected to an ignition-switched power outlet, this feature
allows you to view the backup camera automatically when
you start your vehicle.
Video Resolution : Allows you to set the quality of the camera
video. Higher resolution settings provide a more detailed
image but use more battery power.
NOTE: This setting is not available for all navigation device
product models.
Aligning the Guidance Lines
For the best reference, the guidance lines should be aligned to
reflect the outside edges of the vehicle. You should align the
guidance lines separately for each backup camera. When you
change the camera angle, you should immediately align the
guidance lines again.
1
Position your vehicle with the driver's side closely aligned to a
curb, driveway, or parking stall lines.
TIP: It can be helpful to position the vehicle in the center of a
parking stall, and then pull forward into the next stall. This
allows you to use the parking stall lines at the rear of the
vehicle as reference points for alignment.

Use the arrows in the corners of the screen to move the ends
of the white, driver's-side guidance line.
The guidance line should appear directly on top of the curb,
driveway, or parking stall line.
5 Use the arrows in the center of the screen to move the
colored distance guidance lines up or down.
The red guidance line should be aligned with the rearmost
part of your vehicle. This could be the rear bumper, a trailer
hitch, or another object protruding from the rear of the
vehicle.
6 Reposition the vehicle with the passenger side closely
aligned to a curb, driveway, or parking stall lines, and use the
arrows to align the white, passenger-side guidance line.
The guidance lines should be symmetrical.
