Important limits

  • CabinWatch is a convenience view, not a substitute for stopping when a passenger needs attention. Do not let the display distract from driving.
If it does not work

Quick checks.

  • ✓If the CabinWatch icon is absent, verify the van is a Touring or Elite; EX-L and Sport-L do not include the system.
  • ✓If the image is blocked or hazy, make sure the overhead-console camera lens is clean and unobstructed.
  • ✓A monochrome-looking image in a dark cabin is normal operation of the infrared night view.
