Guidance lines provide an approximate visual representation of the vehicle's path when in reverse. To provide the most accurate reference, you must align the guidance lines for each backup camera. You should not use the guidance lines feature if you have not aligned the guidance lines. Aligning the Guidance Lines For best reference, the guidance lines should be aligned to reflect the outside edges of the vehicle. You should align the guidance lines separately for each backup camera. 1 Position the vehicle with one side closely aligned to a curb, driveway, or parking stall lines. You may want to position the vehicle in the center of a parking stall, and then pull forward into the next stall. This allows you to use the parking stall lines in the rear of the vehicle as reference points for alignment. The curb, driveway, or parking stall lines should be clearly visible on the device. 2 From the main menu, select > Rear View. 3 If you have more than one camera paired, select > Choose Camera and select the camera to adjust. 4 Select > Settings > Adjust Guidance Lines. 5 Drag the circles on the corners of the guidance lines until they match the angle and position of the curb, driveway, or parking stall lines. The guidance lines should appear directly on top of your reference points. The red section of the guidance lines should be aligned with the rear of your vehicle. 6 If necessary, reposition the vehicle with the other side closely aligned to a curb, driveway, or parking stall lines, and repeat the alignment process. You should attempt to keep the guidance lines symmetrical, even if your vehicle is not in perfect alignment with the curb, driveway, or parking stall lines. 7 Select after alignment is complete.
