2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Parkview Rear Back-Up Camera Setup
PARKVIEW REAR BACKUP CAMERA
Your vehicle is equipped with the Parkview Rear Back-Up Camera that allows you to see an on-screen image of the rear surroundings of your vehicle whenever the gear selector is put into REVERSE. The image will be displayed on the Uconnect display screen along with a caution note to “Check Entire Surroundings” across the top of the screen. After five seconds this note will disappear. The Parkview camera is located on the rear of the vehicle above the rear license plate. When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with camera delay turned off, the rear camera mode is exited and the previous screen appears.
Manual Activation Of The Back-Up Camera
- Press the Controls button located at the bottom of the Uconnect display.
- Press the Back-Up Camera button to turn the Rear View Camera system on.
NOTE: The Parkview Rear Back-Up Camera has programmable modes of operation that may be selected through the Uconnect system page 204.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with camera delay turned off, the rear camera mode is exited and the previous screen appears. When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with camera delay turned on, the camera image will continue to be displayed for up to 10 seconds unless the following conditions occur: the vehicle speed exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h), the vehicle is shifted into PARK, the vehicle’s ignition is placed in the OFF position, or the touchscreen button X to disable the display of the Rear View Camera is pressed. When enabled, active guidelines are overlaid on the image to illustrate the width of the vehicle and its projected backup path based on the steering wheel position. A dashed center line overlay indicates the center of the vehicle to assist with parking or aligning to a hitch/receiver. Different colored zones indicate the distance to the rear of the vehicle. The following table shows the approximate distances for each zone:
| Zone | Distance To The Rear Of The Vehicle |
| Red | 0 – 1 ft (0 – 30 cm) |
| Yellow | 1 ft – 6.5 ft (30 cm – 2 m) |
| Green | 6.5 ft or greater (2 m or greater) |
WARNING
Drivers must be careful when backing up even when using the ParkView Rear Back-Up Camera. Always check carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, or blind spots before backing up. You are responsible for the safety of your surroundings and must continue to pay attention while backing up. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION
- To avoid vehicle damage, ParkView should only be used as a parking aid. The Parkview camera is unable to view every obstacle or object in your drive path.
- To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle must be driven slowly when using Parkview to be able to stop in time when an obstacle is seen. It is recommended that the driver look frequently over his/her shoulder when using Parkview.
NOTE: If snow, ice, mud, or any foreign substance builds up on the camera lens, clean the lens, rinse with water, and dry with a soft cloth. Do not cover the lens.
Rear Camera Washer (If Equipped)
When the rear window washer is activated by pushing the windshield wiper/washer lever forward, the rear backup camera and digital rearview mirror (if equipped) cameras are also washed. For more information, see page 66.
ZOOM VIEW
When the Rear View Camera image is being displayed, and the vehicle speed is below 8 mph (13 km/h) while in any gear selector position, Zoom View is available.
- By pressing the “magnifying glass” icon in the upper left of the display screen, the image will zoom in to four times the standard view. Pressing the icon a second time will return the view to the standard Back-Up Camera display.
- When Zoom View is selected while the vehicle is in REVERSE, then shifted to DRIVE, the camera delay view will display the standard Back-Up Camera view. If the vehicle is then returned to REVERSE gear from DRIVE, the Zoom View selection will automatically resume.
- Shifting to NEUTRAL from any gear will maintain the selected view (Zoom or Standard) as long as the vehicle is below 8 mph (13 km/h).
- If the vehicle is in PARK, Zoom View is available until the gear selector is placed in DRIVE or REVERSE and speeds are at or above 8 mph
(13 km/h).
NOTE
- If the vehicle is in DRIVE, NEUTRAL, or REVERSE, and the speed is greater than or equal to 8 mph (13 km/h), Zoom View is unavailable and the icon will appear grey.
- While in Zoom View, the guidelines will not be visible.
VIEWING AT SPEED
When the vehicle is in PARK, NEUTRAL or DRIVE, the Rear View Camera can be activated with the Back-Up Camera button in the Controls menu. This feature allows the customer to monitor the area directly behind the vehicle (or trailer, if equipped) for up to 10 seconds while driving. If the vehicle speed remains below 8 mph (13 km/h), the Rear View Camera image will be displayed continuously until deactivated via the X button on the touchscreen.
