Ambient lighting conditions
The camera automatically monitors the ambient
lighting conditions behind the vehicle and con-
stantly adjusts sensitivity to light. This may cause
the brightness and quality of the image on the
screen to vary slightly. Sensitivity to light is
increased in dark conditions or in bad weather,
which may affect image quality.
If the image on the screen seems too dark,
brightness can be increased with the thumb
wheel on the lighting panel.
NOTE
In order to function properly, the camera lens
should always be kept clean. This is particu-
larly important in bad weather. Keep the lens
free of dirt, ice or snow.

zoomed:

Press CAM or turn TUNE. Pressing or turn-
ing again returns you to normal view.
If there are additional alternatives, press/turn
until the desired camera view is displayed.
Automatic zoom
Automatic zoom is a feature that is available on
models equipped with a trailer hitch and the
optional (p. 238)Park assist system. With this
alternative selected, the camera will zoom in on
the trailer hitch automatically if the vehicle
approaches an object/trailer.
