WARNING! (Continued)

Your vehicle is equipped with the ParkView Rear Back Up

Camera that allows you to see an on-screen image of the

rear surroundings of your vehicle whenever the gear

selector is put into REVERSE. The image will be displayed

in the touchscreen display along with a caution note to

“check entire surroundings” across the top of the screen.

After five seconds, this note will disappear. The ParkView

ball assembly, depending on its size and shape, giving a

false indication that an obstacle is behind the vehicle.

CAUTION!

• Rear Park Assist is only a parking aid and it is

unable to recognize every obstacle, including small

obstacles. Parking curbs might be temporarily de-

tected or not detected at all. Obstacles located above

or below the sensors will not be detected when they

are in close proximity.

• The vehicle must be driven slowly when using Rear

Park Assist in order to be able to stop in time when

an obstacle is detected. It is recommended that the

driver looks over his/her shoulder when using Rear

Park Assist.

When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE, the rear

camera mode is exited and the last selected touchscreen

appears again.

If your vehicle is equipped with the Camera Delay feature

and it is turned on, the rear camera image will be displayed

for up to 10 seconds when the vehicle is shifted out of

REVERSE unless the forward vehicle speed exceeds 8 mph

(13 km/h), the transmission is shifted into PARK or the

vehicle’s ignition is cycled to the OFF position.

If it’s necessary to keep the ball mount and hitch ball

assembly mounted for a long period, it is possible to filter

out the ball mount and hitch ball assembly presence in

sensor field of view. The filtering operation must be

performed only by an authorized dealer.

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. A

dashed center line overlay indicates the center of the

vehicle to assist with parking.

using the ParkView Rear Back Up Camera. Always

check carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to

sponsible for the safety of your surroundings and must

continue to pay attention while backing up. Failure to

do so can result in serious injury or death.

NOTE: If snow, ice, mud, or any foreign substance builds

up on the camera lens, clean the lens, rinse with water, and

dry with a soft cloth. Do not cover the lens.

NOTE: A funnel is provided (located in the tool bag or

cargo floor area in the rear cargo area) to open the flapper

door to allow for emergency refueling with a gas can.

ADDING FUEL

1. Open the fuel filler door.

2. There is no fuel filler cap. A flapper door inside the pipe

seals the system.

3. Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler pipe – the

nozzle opens and holds the flapper door while refuel-

ing.

NOTE: Only the correct size nozzle opens the latches

allowing the flapper door to open.

4. Fill the vehicle with fuel – when the fuel nozzle “clicks”

or shuts off the fuel tank is full.
