Q: QuestionCan I put a shortcut for the rear view cam on the home screen so I can see what's behind me even when im not backing up?

Asked 2 months ago by randblue.

• A:Answer Hello Valued Customer, thank you for sharing your question! The DMX5710S has a dedicated camera input for a rear-view camera. By default, it only shows when you shift into reverse gear (triggered by the reverse-signal wire). However, Kenwood added a “Camera” shortcut button in the on-screen menu. You can tap the “Camera” icon from the receiver’s screen to view the rear camera feed anytime, not just when backing up. This works while driving forward (for towing, checking cargo, or just seeing what’s behind you). The view will stay on-screen until you exit it or switch sources. The shortcut is not always pinned on the home screen, but it’s available in the main menu/shortcut bar. If you have any additional questions you may reach out to 800-536-9663 or email us at [email protected]. Thank you for choosing KENWOOD!

Q: QuestionI own a 2016 Kia Sedona with 360 cameras, is this compatible with my 360 cameras or will it only display the backup camera?

Asked 2 weeks ago by Qball.

• A:Answer Hello Valued Customer, thank you for sharing your question! The Kenwood DMX5710S can be used with a backup camera, but it is not directly compatible with a full 360-degree camera system (e.g., the one built into a 2016 Kia Sedona) without additional modules or interface work. Your Kia has multiple cameras that each require an input an then your system stitches those images together to create one 360 image. This receiver has a single camera input, so it will not accommodate multiple camera inputs. We suggest you reach out to one of our Techs directly to discuss options and potential interface modules that could accommodate this model to your needs. You can reach our Techs at 800-536-9663 or email us at [email protected]. Thank you for choosing KENWOOD!

Q: QuestionIs this compatible with my factory rear camera? 2012 Ford Edge

Asked 2 months ago by Case.

• A:Answer You would have to ask the CSR to be certain. I have a 2016 Camry with factory backup camera and it was removed as the new one has a camera. The new one is much better. I love my new system! Installation was quick and the installer answered all my questions.
