Parking Aids REAR VIEW CAMERA (IF EQUIPPED) During operation, lines appear in the display which represent your vehicle's path and proximity to objects behind the vehicle. WARNINGS 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. Back up as slow as possible since higher speeds might limit your reaction time to stop the vehicle. Use caution when using the rear video camera and the trunk is ajar. If the trunk is ajar, the camera will be out of position and the video image may be incorrect. All guidelines (if enabled) have been removed when the trunk is ajar. Use caution when turning camera features on or off while in R (Reverse). Make sure the vehicle is not moving. The rear view camera system provides a video image of the area behind the vehicle. The image will be displayed in either in the rear view mirror or the display in the center of the instrument panel. E152548 The camera is located on the trunk near the high-mount brake lamp. Using the Rear View Camera System The rear view camera system displays what is behind your vehicle when you place the transmission in R (Reverse). The system uses three types of guides to help you see what is behind your vehicle: • Active guidelines: Show the intended path of your vehicle when reversing. • Fixed guidelines: Show the actual path your vehicle is moving in while reversing in a straight line. This can be helpful when backing into a parking space or aligning your vehicle with another object behind you. • Centerline (If applicable): Helps align the center of your vehicle with an object (i.e. a trailer). 192 MKZ (CC9)
