  • You can also select PARKING SAFETY PRIORITY so the audio system volume will lower while SVM is activated

When engaged, Surround View Monitoring is only a supplemental device. Drivers should not rely solely on the SVM information when parking and backing up. Drivers should always pay attention and directly check the left/right and rear.
