REAR VIEW CAMERA

WARNINGS

The rear view camera system is a
reverse aid supplement device that
still requires the driver to use it in

conjunction with the interior and exterior
mirrors for maximum coverage.

The camera may not detect objects
that are very close to your vehicle.

Back up as slow as possible since
higher speeds might limit your
reaction time to stop the vehicle.

Note: The operation of the camera may
vary depending on the ambient temperature,
vehicle and road conditions.
