Safety or driver assistance features are no substitute for the driver’s responsibility to operate the vehicle in a safe manner. The driver should remain attentive to traffic, surroundings and road conditions at all times. Visibility, weather and road conditions may affect feature performance. Read the vehicle’s Owner’s Manual for more important feature limitations and information.
You can view Trailer Hitch View and Rear Standard View while driving at low speeds (below 8 miles per hour/12 kilometres per hour). At speeds above 8 mph/12 kph, you can briefly observe these views while driving.
Why does the CAMERA app show a vehicle that’s a different colour from mine?
The vehicle displayed in the CAMERA app will always be a default colour that may vary by model. However, the camera will display objects such as trailers on-screen in their true colour.
Why does Surround View/Top-Down View display a black field when I open a door?
Surround View/Top-Down View uses cameras mounted on the outside rearview mirrors to show the sides of the vehicle. Surround View/Top-Down View will display a black field around that area when the door is open.
To find out if your vehicle has this feature, contact your dealer or refer to your vehicle’s equipment list. Please check your Owner’s Manual for more information about features.
