Question Back-up Camera Delay

I was reading in the owners manual that the backup camera can be set to have delay in turning off. If the delay is activated, the display is supposed to remain on when switching from reverse to any other gear until a speed of 3-5mph is achieved. This would be useful when backing up to connect to a trailer.

Problem is, that I am not able to find the screen on the nav system to set this up (manual states it is accessible from the settings button on the Nav screen).

Can anybody offer me some insight or perhaps the correct location to activate this option?

It's in the productivity screen between the speedo and tach, as opposed to the nav screen. I'd go out and look exactly where but it's pouring out!

IIRC it's under "vehicle settings".

When you put it in reverse, the camera view comes on, then you just touch the screen and you get a menu of options where you can mess with the settings. I think this is another way to do it, it's what I did I think.....

When back up camera comes on you have a settings button. Touch that and you have some settings that can be changed. Helps when hooking up a trailer. I have mine to the longest on setting and shuts off appprox 3 mph in forward. Not sure how long it will stay on if you don't move forward but will always come on in reverse.
