Legacy
Outback
A rear view camera is attached to the
trunk lid (Legacy) or rear gate (Outback).
When the ignition switch is "ON" and the
shift lever (MT models) or select lever
(CVT models) is set to "R", the rear view
camera automatically displays the rear
view image behind the vehicle on the
audio/navigation monitor.
WARNING
- Since the rear view camera uses
a wide-angle lens, the image on
the monitor is different from the
actual view in terms of distance.
- Since the range of the image on
the monitor is limited, you should
always check the rear view and
the surrounding area with your
eyes and mirrors, and move
backward at a slow speed. Moving
backward only by checking
the rear view image from the
camera could cause an accident.
- Do not disassemble or modify the
camera, switch or wiring. If
smoke comes out or you smell
a strange odor, stop using the
rear view camera immediately.
Contact your SUBARU dealer
for an inspection. Continued use
may result in accident, fire or
electric shock.

CAUTION
- If your vehicle is washed with a
high-pressure washer, do not
allow water to contact the camera
directly. Entry of water in the
camera lens may result in condensation,
malfunction, fire or
electric shock.
- Since the camera is a precision
device, do not subject it to strong
impacts. Otherwise, malfunction,
fire or electric shock may occur.
- If mud or snow sticks to or is
frozen on the camera, you must
be very careful removing it.
Otherwise, damage done to the
camera may cause a fire or
electric shock. Pour water or
lukewarm water over the camera
to remove mud and ice, and wipe
it with a soft, dry cloth.
- Do not put a flame close to the
camera or wiring. Otherwise, damage
or fire may occur.
- When replacing the fuse, be sure
to use a fuse with the specified
rating. Use of a fuse with a
different rating may result in a
malfunction.
- If the rear view camera is used for
a long time while the engine is
not operated, the battery may
become completely discharged.

NOTE
- Do not wipe the camera with alcohol,
benzine or paint thinner. Otherwise,
discoloration may occur. To remove
contamination, wipe the camera with a
cloth moistened with a diluted neutral
detergent and then wipe it with a soft,
dry cloth.
- When waxing the vehicle, be careful
not to apply the wax to the camera. If it
comes in contact with the camera,
moisten a clean cloth with a diluted
neutral detergent to remove the wax.
- The camera lens has hard coating to
help prevent scratches. However, when
washing the vehicle or cleaning the
camera lens, be careful not to scratch
the camera lens. Do not use a washing
brush directly on the camera lens. The
monitor screen may be adversely affected.
- Strong light shined on the camera
lens may develop white light stripes
around the light source. This is not a
malfunction.
- Under fluorescent lighting, the display
may flicker. However, this is not a
malfunction.
- The image of the rear view camera
may be slightly different from the
actual color of the objects.
