REAR CAMERA
Rear Camera Operation
The rear camera displays the video image behind the vehicle a few seconds after
shifting into the reverse gear.
WARNING
• The rear camera displays a mirror-reversed video image to give the same view as
the rear or side mirror. The way to view the image varies depending on the vehicle
model. Be careful when using the camera.
CAUTION
• Do not rely solely on the rear camera when driving a vehicle in reverse.
• Use the rear camera as an additional tool to check for obstacles.
• Do not drive a vehicle in reverse while only watching the monitor screen. Be sure to
look through both the rear view and side mirrors and confirm the safety around and
behind your vehicle.
• When the screen is cold, it may be difficult to recognize the image due to the image
being darker or image lags. Be sure to visually confirm the safety around and
behind your vehicle.
ADVICE
• When using a high-pressure car-wash machine, take care not to directly spray
on or around the camera. The very high water pressure from this type of cleaning
equipment may cause serious damage to the rear camera.
• Do not subject the camera to a strong impact, for example, by hitting the camera
or knocking an object against it. Doing so may displace the camera position or
installation angle, preventing the rear camera from operating correctly. Contact
your MAZDA dealer for an inspection at your earliest opportunity.
• The camera has a waterproof structure. Do not remove, disassemble, or modify
the camera. Doing so may displace the camera position or installation angle,
preventing the rear camera from operating correctly.
• If you rub or polish the camera cover strongly with a hard brush or abrasive, it may
damage the cover and adversely affect the video image.
• The camera cover is made of plastic. Do not allow any organic solvents, body wax,
oil film remover, or glass coating solvent to come into contact with the camera
cover. If such a material comes into contact with the cover, immediately wipe it off.
• Do not operate the camera facing direct sunlight for an extended period. Doing so
may result in burn-in.
