ries

Always check visually and with the mirrors to confirm your intended path is
clear.

estimates of distance and location.

wheel is turned.

vehicle in cold weather, may cause the system to function abnormally.

water and wipe with a soft cloth. If extremely dirty, wash with a mild
cleanser and rinse.

distorted when the system is cold.
