Driving REARVIEW CAMERA SYSTEM The rearview camera system, located on the liftgate, provides a video image, which appears on the navigation system screen, of the area behind the vehicle. It adds assistance to the driver while reversing or reverse parking the vehicle. To use the camera system, place the transmission in R (Reverse); an image will display on the navigation screen. The area displayed on the screen may vary according to the vehicle orientation and/or road condition. • (1) Rear bumper • (2) Red zone • (3) Yellow zone • (4) Green zone • (5) Center line of vehicle Always use caution while backing. Objects in the red zone are closest to your vehicle and objects in the green zone are further away. Objects are getting closer to your vehicle as they move from the green zone to the yellow or red zones. Use the side mirrors and rearview mirror to get better coverage on both sides and rear of the vehicle. When shifting out of reverse and into any other gear, the image will remain on for a few seconds before it shuts off to assist in parking or trailer hookup. After shifting out of R (Reverse) and into any gear other than P (Park), the image 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. 291 2012 MKT (mkt) Owners Guide, 1st Printing USA (fus)
