camera. You must always use
methods of viewing the area behind
you including looking over both
shoulders as well as continuously
checking all three rear view mirrors.
Due to the difficulty of ensuring
that the area behind you remains
clear, always back up slowly and
stop immediately if you suspect
that a person, and especially a child,
might be behind you.

360 camera monitoring system
(if equipped)

Surround View Monitoring (SVM) is
