AUX CAMERA
Your vehicle may be equipped with one or two AUX
Cameras, which display rear view and side view images
from the trailer on the touchscreen.
NOTE:
Two Aux Cameras are only available on vehicles with NAV
equipped radios if the vehicle is not equipped with a
Center High Mounted Stop Lamp (CHMSL) and Surround
View Camera system.
Activation
The AUX Camera is activated by first pressing the Back Up
Camera or Cargo Camera (if equipped) button on the
touchscreen, followed by the AUX button located in the
upper left corner of the rearview display. On vehicles with
Surround View Camera (if equipped), the AUX Camera can
be activated when the vehicle is in REVERSE by first
pressing the More Cams button in the Surround view
screen, followed by the AUX tab. The AUX camera can also
be activated when the vehicle is in REVERSE by pressing
the AUX button.
If equipped with two AUX Cameras, you can switch
between each camera by pressing the AUX 1 or AUX 2
buttons on the Trailer Camera display.
Deactivation
The AUX Camera is deactivated by pressing the
touchscreen X button in the upper right corner of the
touchscreen. This will return the display back to the
previously displayed screen.
NOTE:
If the AUX button is pressed and no AUX Camera is
connected, the touchscreen will display a blue screen
along with the message “Camera System Unavailable.”
The screen can be exited out by pressing the touch-
screen X button in the upper right hand corner. This will
return the display back to the previously displayed
screen.
Zoom View is not available with the AUX Camera
feature.
The display will always default to the Trailer Camera
display AUX 1.
ENGINE RUNAWAY — DIESEL ENGINE
Diesel engine runaway is a rare condition affecting diesel
engines, where the engine consumes its own lubrication
oil and runs at higher and higher RPM until it overspeeds
to a point where it destroys itself due to either mechanical
failure or engine seizure through lack of lubrication.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up even when
using the Trailer Surround View Camera. Always check
carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, or
blind spots before backing up. You are responsible for
the safety of your surroundings and must continue to
pay attention while backing up. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
To avoid vehicle damage, Trailer Surround View
should only be used as a parking aid. The Trailer
Surround View Camera is unable to view every
obstacle or object in your drive path.
To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle must be driven
slowly when using Trailer Surround View to be able to
stop in time when an obstacle is seen. It is recom-
mended that the driver look frequently over his/her
shoulder when using Trailer Surround View.

WARNING!
In case of engine runaway due to flammable fumes
from fuel spills or turbocharger oil leaks being sucked
into the engine, do the following to help avoid personal
injury and/or vehicle damage:
Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
Using a CO2 or dry chemical type fire extinguisher,
direct the spray from the fire extinguisher into the
grille on the driver side so that the spray enters the
engine air intake.
The inlet for the engine air intake is located behind the
driver’s side headlamp and receives air through the
grille.
