How to Use the Rearview Camera?

How to use the rearview camera: 1. Shift the car into reverse gear, and the rearview camera will automatically activate, allowing you to start reversing. 2. When in reverse gear, the imaging device typically displays three colored guide lines: red, yellow, and green. 3. Each color represents a different distance from the rear of the car; understand the function of each color. 4. The red guide line indicates: When the red line touches an object, the rear of the car is only 30 centimeters away, and you should stop reversing immediately. 5. The yellow guide line indicates: The rear of the car is about 1 meter away, so you can continue reversing but should slow down and stay alert. 6. The green guide line indicates: The rear of the car is about 2 meters away, allowing you to reverse with confidence.

I often park in the residential area, and the reversing camera has been a great help. To use it, first shift into reverse gear, and the central control screen will automatically switch to the rear camera view. At this point, you can see the situation behind the car. The guidelines on the screen are crucial—usually, there are three lines: the green line indicates a safe distance, the yellow line serves as a reminder to slow down, and the red line marks the position of obstacles, meaning you must stop immediately when it's reached. When reversing, control your speed—it's best to release the brake slowly while keeping an eye on both the screen and the actual rearview mirror; don’t rely solely on the camera image. If the picture appears unclear, check if the camera is blocked by dirt. Remember, during rainy days or at night, the screen may reflect glare, so it's safer to also rely on the radar’s audio alerts. Additionally, after parking, remember to shift back to P (Park) mode, or the car will keep beeping.

The rearview camera is quite easy to use. It automatically activates when shifting into reverse gear without any extra operation. Just focus on the guiding lines on the screen—red, yellow, and green indicate different distances. Stop when approaching the red line to avoid hitting objects. Don’t rely solely on the camera when reversing; always check the surroundings with the left and right side mirrors. Some cars offer an optional 360-degree camera for a clearer all-around view, but the basic version is sufficient. The camera is usually located near the rear license plate, so keep it clean for a clear display. If the image freezes or goes black, it might be a wiring issue—visit a 4S shop for inspection. Another important tip: avoid turning the steering wheel too sharply while reversing, as the camera feed may lag slightly behind real-time movements.

The core function of the reversing camera is to activate the display when shifting to R gear, with the view directly shown on the central control screen. The colored guiding lines are very useful—never approach the red zone, which indicates the bumper position. Avoid pressing the accelerator when reversing; it's best to control speed gently with the brake. In low-light conditions at night, the camera switches to night vision mode, though the effect isn't as clear as daytime, requiring extra caution. Remember to clean the camera lens regularly, as dirt can impair the image quality.
