WARNING

•

Do not adjust the steering wheel while
driving. You could lose control of your
vehicle and cause an accident.

•

Do not adjust the steering wheel any
closer to you than is necessary for proper
steering operation and comfort. The
driver's air bag inflates with great force.
If you are unrestrained, leaning forward,
sitting sideways or out of position in any
way, you are at greater risk of injury or
death in a crash. You may also receive
serious or fatal injuries from the air bag if
you are up against it when it inflates.
Always sit back against the seatback and
as far away as practical from the steer-
ing wheel. Always use the seat belts.

•

The system is designed as an aid to the
driver in showing large stationary ob-
jects directly behind the vehicle, to help
avoid damaging the vehicle.

•

The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a level paved
surface. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance be-
tween the vehicle and displayed objects.

CAUTION

Do not scratch the camera lens when clean-
ing dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.

The RearView Monitor system automatically
shows a rear view of the vehicle in the upper
touch-screen display (upper display) when
the shift lever is shifted into the R (Reverse)
position. When activating the RearView
Monitor, the guide lines, the icons and the
messages may not be displayed immediately.
The radio can still be heard while the Rear-
View Monitor is active.

To display the rear view, the RearView Moni-
tor system uses a camera located just above
the vehicle’s license plate
