Image delay if displayed through the rear view mirror: When shifting out of R (Reverse) and into any other gear, the image in the rear view mirror will remain on for a few seconds before it shuts off to assist in parking or trailer hookup. Image delay if displayed through the navigation screen: After shifting out of R (Reverse) and into any gear other than P (Park), the image in the navigation screen will remain until the vehicle speed reaches 5 mph (8 km/h), only if the rear camera delay feature is on, or until any navigation radio button is pressed. Note: The default setting for the rear camera delay is off. Press the "Settings" button found on the navigation screen to set the rear camera delay feature to on or off. Refer to the Navigation System supplement for more information. The camera lens for the camera is located on the trunk. Keep the lens clean so that the video image remains clear and undistorted. Clean the lens with a soft, lint-free cloth and non-abrasive cleaner. Note: If the camera system image is not clear or seems distorted, it may be covered with water droplets, snow, mud or any other substance. If this occurs, clean the camera lens before using the rear view camera system. 262 2011 Taurus Owners Guide, 3rd Printing USA (fus)
