How to set the auxiliary lines for the reversing camera?

In the settings of the reversing camera, there is a white icon in the upper right corner of the screen. Tap it while reversing. Check if there are any issues with the reversing camera. If there are problems, promptly visit a 4S shop for repairs.
I previously set up the reversing camera guidelines myself and found it quite intuitive. First, start the vehicle, shift into reverse to bring up the camera feed, then look for the settings menu on the infotainment screen. Some cars require holding down a specific function button on the steering wheel to access the calibration interface. Guidelines typically come in two types: dynamic (which curve with steering wheel movement) and static (fixed reference lines). When adjusting, make sure to choose a level surface, preferably with reference markers like floor tile grids. When calibrating my own car, I aligned it slowly against the tile lines on the wall, moving back and forth three or four times to get it right. Models with trajectory lines are even more convenient, directly displaying the tire path. After adjustments, don’t forget to save the settings—next time you reverse, you’ll see clear guidance.
Setting up the reverse camera guidelines isn't actually that complicated, it mainly depends on your vehicle's system. I've personally encountered three common methods: For models with physical knobs, simply rotate the adjustment knob during reversing to modify the offset; For touchscreen infotainment systems, look for the parking assist option in settings where you'll find guideline calibration; The smartest are those with OBD ports - just connect via a mobile app to fine-tune through the vehicle system. Special note: guideline colors are usually customizable, with green indicating safe distance and red marking the warning zone. I recommend testing adjustments in an open area afterward - have a friend stand at 1m and 2m behind to verify actual alignment. For aftermarket cameras, accessing engineering mode might be necessary for adjustments, in which case it's best to seek professional technician assistance.
