Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Peripheral Camera System Layout
The peripheral camera system consists of 4 cameras. They are located in the radiator grille, in both side exterior mirrors and in the rear lid. The system helps the driver when parking, maneuvering or when driving off-road. The camera images are displayed on the Front Information Display Control Head -J685-.
Camera Views that can be Selected:
- Bird's-eye view: The images from all 4 cameras (Front Peripheral Camera -R243- /Left Peripheral Camera -R244- /Right Peripheral Camera -R245- /Rear Peripheral Camera -R246-) show the view around the entire vehicle.
- Front camera (front view): the image from the camera inside the front bumper cover (Front Peripheral Camera -R243-) shows the area in front of the vehicle (up to the left and right corners of the bumper).
- Side cameras (side view): the images from the cameras inside the left and right exterior rearview mirrors (Left Peripheral Camera -R244- /Right Peripheral Camera -R245-) show the side areas next to the vehicle.
- Rear camera (rear view): the image from the camera in the rear lid (Rear Peripheral Camera -R246-) shows the area behind the vehicle.
