Always use caution while reversing.
Objects in the red zone are closest to your
vehicle and objects in the green zone are
farther away. Objects are getting closer to
your vehicle as they move from the green
zone to the yellow or red zones. Use the
side view mirrors and rear view mirror to
get better coverage on both sides and rear
of the vehicle.

Selectable settings for this feature are
ACTIVE + FIXED, FIXED and OFF.

Visual Park Aid Alert

Note: Visual park alert is only available
when the transmission is in R (Reverse).

Note: The reverse sensing system is not
effective at speeds above 3 mph (5 km/h)
and may not detect certain angular or
moving objects.

The system uses red, yellow and green
highlights which appear on top of the video
image when an object is detected by the
reverse sensing system. The alert highlights
the closest object detected. The reverse
sensing alert can be disabled and if visual
park aid alert is enabled, highlighted areas
are still displayed.

Selectable settings for this feature are ON
and OFF.

Manual Zoom

WARNING

When manual zoom is on, the full
area behind the vehicle is not shown.
Be aware of your surroundings when

using the manual zoom feature.

Note: Manual zoom is only available when
the transmission is in R (Reverse).

Note: When manual zoom is enabled, only
the centerline is shown.

This allows you to get a closer view of an
object behind the vehicle. The zoomed
image keeps the bumper in the image to
provide a reference. The zoom is only
active while the transmission is in R
(Reverse). When the transmission is
shifted out of R (Reverse), the feature
automatically turns off and must be reset
when it is used again.

Selectable settings for this feature are OFF,
Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3. Press the up and
down arrows to change the view. The
selection level appears between the
buttons (for example, Level 1). The default
setting for the manual zoom is OFF.

Rear Camera Delay

When shifting the transmission out of R
(Reverse) and into any gear other than P
(Park), the camera image remains in the
display until the vehicle speed reaches 5
mph (8 km/h). This occurs when the rear
camera delay feature is on, or until a radio
button is selected.

Selectable settings for this feature are ON
and OFF. The default setting for the rear
camera delay is OFF.
