SURROUND VIEW CAMERA SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Surround View Camera system allows you to see an on-screen image of the surroundings and the Top View of your vehicle. This occurs whenever the gear selector is in REVERSE or
when enabled through the Uconnect system. The Top View of the vehicle will also show if any doors are open. The image will be displayed on the touchscreen along with a caution note “Check Entire Surroundings”. After five seconds, this note will disappear. The Surround View Camera system is comprised of four cameras located in the front grille, rear tailgate and side mirrors.
The Surround View Camera system has programmable settings that may be selected through the Uconnect system page 237.
Press this button on the touchscreen to enter the Surround View Camera menu in the Uconnect system.
When the vehicle is shifted into REVERSE, the Rear View and Top View is the default view of the system.
If the camera delay is turned on, the camera image will display for up to 10 seconds after shifting out of REVERSE. The camera image will not display for 10 seconds if the vehicle speed exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h), the vehicle is shifted into PARK, or the ignition is placed in the OFF position. The “X” button on the touchscreen disables the display of the camera image.
If the camera delay is turned off, the camera image will close and display the previous screen after shifting out of REVERSE.
If active guidelines are enabled, the lines are overlaid on the image in the Rear View to illustrate the width of the vehicle. The view will also include the side view mirrors and its projected back up path based on the steering wheel position.
There are different colored zones to indicate the distance to the rear of the vehicle. Refer to the chart below:
Zone |
Distance To The Rear Of The Vehicle |
Red |
0 - 1 ft (0 - 30 cm) |
Yellow |
1 ft - 6.5 ft (30 cm - 2 m) |
Green |
6.5 ft or greater (2 m or greater) |
Standard Rear View can be manually activated by selecting “Back Up Camera” through the Controls menu within the Uconnect system.
The Top View will show in the Uconnect system with Rear View and Front View in a split screen display. There are integrated ParkSense arcs in the image at the front and rear of the vehicle. The arcs will change color from yellow to red corresponding the distance zones to the oncoming object.
