WARNING  
Rear View Camera system is not able to give you a clear and undistorted view of all areas  
behind the vehicle.  
The camera has blind spots in which it cannot see people and objects.  
Always be careful and look around you when parking. The camera cannot show people,  
animals, and objects in certain situations. Watch out for small children and animals in  
particular.  
Due to the screen resolution, the camera may not pick up thin posts, chain-link fences and  
similar fences, and other objects, or it may show them unclear.  
The camera lens enlarges and distorts the field of vision and causes objects on the screen  
to appear altered and imprecise.  
Always keep the camera lens clean and free of snow and ice; do not cover the lens.  
WARNING  
Rear View Camera system technology cannot overcome the laws of physics and the limits of  
the system. Careless or unintentional use of Rear View Camera system may result in  
accidents and severe injuries.  
Always adjust your speed and driving style to road, traffic, weather, and visibility  
conditions.  
Always keep an eye on the parking direction and the vehicle surroundings. The front of  
the vehicle swings out more than the rear of the vehicle.  
Never pay so much attention to the graphics shown on the screen that you fail to notice  
what is going on around you.  
Always watch for people, especially small children, animals and objects, because the  
camera may not always be able to detect them.  
The system may not be able to clearly show everything behind the vehicle.  
Use the Rear View Camera system only when the rear hatch is completely closed.  
NOTICE  
The camera shows only two-dimensional images on the screen. Due to the lack of depth of  
field, it may be difficult or impossible to identify protruding objects or recesses in the road, for  
example.  
Things like thin rods, fences, posts and trees may not be detected by the camera and could  
damage the vehicle.
