• 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.
• Objects that are close to either corner of the bumper or under the bumper, might not be seen on the screen due to the limited coverage of the camera system.
• Objects above the camera may not be visible. Check the area behind your vehicle when necessary.
• Reverse your vehicle slowly. Failure to follow this instruction could result in the loss of control of your vehicle, personal injury or death.
• Use caution when the tailgate is ajar. If the tailgate is ajar, the camera is out of position and the video image could be incorrect.
• Do not switch the camera features on or off when your vehicle is moving.

Note: When towing, the camera only sees what you are towing.This might not provide adequate coverage and you might not see some objects.In some vehicles, the guide lines may disappear when you connect the trailer tow connector.
