Park Assist Camera (PAC)* trajectory lines and fields

The Park Assist Camera system uses trajectory lines and fields to indicate the vehicle's position in relation to its immediate surroundings.

Trajectory lines

Sample guidelines

The trajectory lines are intended to show the position of the vehicle's outermost dimensions based on the current position of the steering wheel to help simplify parallel parking, backing into tight spaces or when attaching a trailer.

The lines on the screen are projected as if they were a path on the ground around the vehicle and are directly affected by the way in which the steering wheel is turned. This enables the driver to see path the vehicle will take, even if he/she turns the steering wheel.

These lines also indicate the outermost limits that any object (door mirrors, corners of the body, a trailer hitch, etc.) extends out from the vehicle, even when it turns.

 Note

When backing up with a trailer, the trajectory lines show the path that the vehicle will take, not the trailer.

Trajectory lines will not be displayed while zooming in.

 Warning

Keep in mind that when the rear camera has been selected, the image on the screen only shows the area behind the vehicle. The driver must always watch for people, animals, other vehicles, etc., near the sides or the front of the vehicle when turning while backing up.

The opposite is true when the front camera is selected.

Please note that the trajectory lines show the shortest path. Be sure that the vehicle’s sides do not come into contact with or scrape against any obstacle/obstruction when the steering wheel is turned while driving forward or that the front of the vehicle does not come into contact with or scrape against any obstacle/obstruction when backing up.

Models with the 360° panorama camera system and Park Assist sensors*

Location of the cameras and their fields of vision (generic illustration)
On models with the 360° panorama camera system, trajectory lines will be shown behind, in front of or to the sides of the vehicle, depending on its direction.
  • When driving forward: front lines
  • When backing up: side/rear lines

When the front or rear camera is selected, trajectory lines will be shown regardless of the vehicle's direction.

If a side camera is selected, trajectory lines will only be shown if the vehicle is backing up.

Trajectory lines for a trailer hitch (towbar)

  1. P5-Icon red circle 1Towbar: activate trajectory lines for a trailer hitch
  2. P5-Icon red circle 2Zoom: zoom in/out
The camera can help make hitching a trailer easier by showing the "line" that the trailer hitch will take toward the trailer.
Tap Towbar (1).
The trajectory lines will be displayed and the trajectory lines for the vehicle will disappear.
Tap Zoom (2) for a close-up view.
The camera will zoom in.

Trajectory lines for the trailer hitch and the vehicle cannot be shown at the same time.

Front and rear sensor fields

If the vehicle is also equipped with the optional Park Assist system, this information will be displayed on the screen as colored field showing the distance to obstacles that have been detected.

Front and rear sensors

The front and rear fields change colors (yellow-orange-red) as the vehicle moves closer to an object.
Front/rear field colorsDistance to the object
Yellow2.0–4.9 ft (0.6–1.5 m )
Orange1.3–2.0 ft (0.4–0.6 m)
Red0–1.3 ft (0–0.4 m)

Side sensors

The side fields will only be shown in orange.
