PARKVIEW REAR BACK UP CAMERA — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with the ParkView Rear Back Up Camera that allows
you to see a image of the rear surroundings of your vehicle whenever the gear selector
is put into REVERSE or whenever it is initiated through "Backup Camera" button in
the "Controls" menu. Whenever the gear selector is put into REVERSE, the image will
be displayed in the rearview mirror display (if equipped) or Uconnect screen (if
equipped) along with a caution note to “check entire surroundings” across the top of
the screen. After five seconds this note will disappear.
The ParkView Camera is located to the left of the tailgate handle.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (with Camera delay turned OFF), the rear
Camera mode is exited and the navigation or audio screen appears again.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (with Camera delay turned ON), the rear
Camera image will be displayed for up to 10 seconds after shifting out of "REVERSE"
unless the forward vehicle speed exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h), the transmission is
shifted into "PARK" or the ignition is switched to the OFF position.
Whenever the Rear View Camera image is activated through "Backup Camera" button
in the "Controls" menu, a display timer for the image is initiated. The image will
continue to be displayed until the display timer exceeds 10 seconds and the vehicle
speed is above 8 mph (13 km/h) or the touchscreen button "X" to disable display of
the Rear View Camera image is pressed.
NOTE:
If the vehicle speed remains below 8 mph (13 km/h), the Rear View Camera image
will be displayed continuously until deactivated via the touchscreen button "X".
If equipped with a Cargo Camera, a touchscreen button to indicate the current
active Camera image being displayed is made available whenever the Rear View
Camera image is displayed.
If equipped with a Cargo Camera, a touchscreen button to switch the display
to Cargo Camera image is made available whenever the Rear View Camera image is
displayed.
A touchscreen button "X" to disable display of the camera image is made available
when the vehicle is not in REVERSE gear.
When enabled, active guide lines are overlaid on the image to illustrate the width of
the vehicle and its projected backup path based on the steering wheel position. The
active guide lines will show separate zones that will help indicate the distance to the
rear of the vehicle.
NOTE:

ParkView Rear Backup Camera, refer to “Uconnect Settings ” in “Understanding Your
Instrument Panel” in the Owner’s Manual on www.ramtrucks.com/en/owners/manuals
