Camera and Video Monitoring Systems
This closed circuit television system features cameras mounted on the exterior of your coach and is connected to the
in-
dash video screen.
This system comes on automatically when you put the transmission in reverse to allow you to
see
behind your unit when backing up.
Additionally, it can be manually turned on in transit to allow you to monitor your
towed
vehicle or for additional assistance in passing maneuvers.
Rear View Cameras
Installed as a standard feature, the rear view monitor system assists the driver in the backing and parking of the vehicle.
This system consists of a camera mounted on the rear cap and a monitor located on the dash. With the MODE switch in
the “MANU” position, the monitor will be on when the ignition is turned on.
With the MODE Switch in the “AUTO”
position,
the monitor will display the picture from the camera when the vehicle transmission is placed in reverse (R).
Side View Cameras
As an option for the rear vision system, your unit may be equipped with “side view” cameras. These cameras are tied
into
the rear vision system and are activated by the turn signals. When a turn signal is activated, the monitor will switch
to
display that side of the unit. If the rear vision monitor is turned on manually, you can toggle through the cameras by
using
the “source” button, allowing you to stay on any given camera that you choose.
