Park Assist Camera (PAC)*

The Park Assist Camera system is designed to provide the driver with a view of the area around the vehicle in the form of a camera image and graphics in the center display.

PAC is a supplementary parking aid that can be activated automatically when the gear selector is in R or by tapping a button in the center display, depending on the selected settings. See also the article "Starting the Park Assist Camera."

 Note

A trailer hitch whose wiring is integrated with the vehicle's electrical system will be taken into account when measuring the available space behind the vehicle.

 Warning

  • PAC is designed to be a supplementary aid when parking the vehicle. It is not, however, intended to replace the driver’s attention and judgment.
  • The camera has blind spots where it cannot detect objects or people around or near the vehicle.
  • Pay particular attention to people or animals that are close to the vehicle.
  • Objects seen on the screen may be closer than they appear to be.

Camera views

This function can show a 360° panoramic view as well as separate views for the four respective cameras: front, rear, left, right. The currently selected camera will be displayed at the top of the view.

Panorama (360°) view

Location of the cameras and their fields of vision

All four sides of the vehicle are shown in the center display to help the driver monitor objects close-by when maneuvering at low speeds.

Each camera view can be displayed separately:
  • Tap the center display in the desired "field of vision," e.g., behind the rear camera, etc.

The camera view selected (front/left/right/rear) will be indicated at the top of the graphic.

The cameras can be activated automatically or manually, see the article "Park Assist Camera settings."

Location of the rear Park Assist Camera (generic illustration)

The rear camera shows a wide area behind the vehicle and on certain models, part of the bumper and the trailer hitch (if installed) will be visible.

Some objects on the screen may appear to “lean” slightly, which is normal.

 Warning

People/objects/obstructions displayed on the center console screen may be closer to the vehicle than they appear.

Front camera

Location of the front Park Assist Camera (generic illustration)

The front camera is located behind the grill and can be useful when driving off in areas with limited visibility (hedges, bushes, etc). It is active at speeds up to approx. 16 mph (25 km/h) and is automatically turned off when the vehicle exceeds this speed.

However, if the vehicle's speed does not exceed 30 mph (50 km/h) and its speed goes under 14 mph (22 km/h) within 60 seconds after the camera has been switched off, the front camera will reactivate.

 Note

The front camera will only reactivate automatically if Auto Camera Reverse Activation has been selected in Settings → My Car → Park Assist.

Side camera
