When the selector lever is shifted into the R
(Reverse) position, the monitor display shows
view to the rear of the vehicle.
WARNING
cThe system is designed as an aid to the
driver in detecting large stationary ob-
jects to help avoid damaging the ve-
hicle. The system will not detect small
objects below the bumper, and may not
detect objects close to the bumper or
on the ground.
cThe rear view camera is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper back-
ing. Always turn and check that it is safe
to do so before backing up. Always
back up slowly.
cObjects viewed in the rear view monitor
differ from actual distance because a
wide-angle lens is used. Objects in the
rear view monitor will appear visually
opposite than when viewed in the rear
view and outside mirrors.
cMake sure that the lift gate is securely
closed when backing up.
cDo not put anything on the rear view
camera. The rear view camera is in-
stalled beside the license plate light.cWhen washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock.
cDo not strike the camera. It is a preci-
sion instrument. Otherwise, it may mal-
function or cause damage resulting in a
fire or an electric shock.
CAUTION
There is a plastic cover over the camera.
Do not scratch the cover when cleaning
dirt or snow from the cover.
HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED
LINES
Lines which indicate the vehicle clearance and
distances to objects with reference to the
bumper line
sAare displayed on the monitor.They are indicated as reference distances to
objects. The lines and colors in the display indi-
cate distances from the back bumper line
sAin
the illustration.
s11.5 feet (0.5 m) red
s23 feet (1 m) yellow
s37 feet (2 m) green
s410 feet (3 m) green
The vehicle clearance lines are wider than
the actual clearance.

ADJUSTING THE SCREEN
To adjust the quality of the screen, refer to HOW
TO USE THE“SETTING”BUTTON in this sec-
tion.
cWhen it is difficult to see in the rearward
direction due to shady conditions, press the
“ENTER”button to make objects in the
monitor brighter.
cTo change the brightness, press the“EN-
TER”button again, turn the key switch OFF
or shift to reverse and wait for 10 seconds.
OPERATING TIPS
cWhen the selector lever is shifted to R, the
monitor screen automatically changes to the
rear view monitor mode. However, the radio
can be heard.
cIt may take some time until the rear view
monitor is displayed after the selector lever
has been shifted to R. Objects may be dis-
torted momentarily until the rear view moni-
tor screen is displayed completely. When
the selector lever is returned to a position
other than R, it may take some time until the
screen changes. Objects on the screen may
be distorted until they are completely dis-
played.cWhen the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display ob-
jects. This is not a malfunction.
cWhen strong light directly enters the cam-
era, objects may not be displayed clearly.
cVertical lines may be seen in objects on the
screen. This is due to strong reflected light
from the bumper. This is not a malfunction.
cThe screen may flicker under fluorescent
light. This is not a malfunction.
cThe colors of objects on the rear view moni-
tor may differ somewhat from those of the
actual object.
cWhen the contrast of objects is low at night,
pushing the“ENTER”button may not
change the brightness.
cObjects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark place or at night.
cIf dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera,
the rear view monitor may not display ob-
jects. Clean the camera.
cDo not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to
clean the camera. This will cause discolora-
tion. To clean the camera, wipe with a cloth
dampened with a diluted mild cleaning agent
and then wipe with a dry cloth.cDo not damage the camera as the monitor
screen may be adversely affected.
cDo not use body wax on the camera window.
Wipe off the wax with a clean cloth damp-
ened with mild detergent diluted with water.

Reception conditions will constantly change be-
cause of vehicle movement. Buildings, terrain,
signal distance and interference from other ve-
hicles can work against ideal reception. De-
scribed below are some of the factors that can
affect your radio reception.
FM RADIO RECEPTION
Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 – 30
miles (40 – 48 km) , with monaural (single chan-
nel) FM having slightly more range than stereo
FM. External influences may sometimes interfere
with FM station reception even if the FM station is
within 25 miles (40 km) . The strength of the FM
signal is directly related to the distance between
the transmitter and receiver. FM signals follow a
line-of-sight path, exhibiting many of the same
characteristics as light. For example they will
reflect off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from
a station transmitter, the signals will tend to fade
and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interference from
buildings, large hills or due to antenna position
(usually in conjunction with increased distance
from the station transmitter) static or flutter can
be heard. This can be reduced by adjusting the
treble control to reduce treble response.Multipath reception: Because of the reflective
characteristics of FM signals, direct and reflected
signals reach the receiver at the same time. The
signals may cancel each other, resulting in mo-
mentary flutter or loss of sound.
AM RADIO RECEPTION
AM signals, because of their low frequency, can
bend around objects and skip along the ground.
In addition, the signals can be bounced off the
ionosphere and bent back to earth. Because of
these characteristics, AM signals are also sub-
ject to interference as they travel from transmitter
to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas with
many tall buildings. It can also occur for several
seconds during ionospheric turbulence even in
areas where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical
power lines, electric signs and even traffic lights.
SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION (if so
equipped)
When the satellite radio is first installed or the
battery has been replaced, the satellite radio may
not work properly. This is not a malfunction. Wait
more than 10 minutes with satellite radio ON andthe vehicle outside of any metal or large building
for satellite radio to receive all of the necessary
data.
No satellite radio reception is available and “NO
SAT” is displayed when the SAT band option is
selected unless optional satellite receiver and
antenna are installed and an XMTor SIRIUS™
satellite radio service subscription is active. Sat-
ellite radio is not available in Alaska, Hawaii and
Guam.
Satellite radio performance may be affected if
cargo carried on the roof blocks the satellite radio
signal.
If possible, do not put cargo over the satellite
antenna.

VOL (volume) button:
The VOL button allows the rear passengers to
adjust the headphone volume level.
(SPEAKER CONTROL) button:
Push this button to turn the rear speakers off and

the rear audio controls. When a source of media
is selected, the media label will be illuminated.
SEEK button:
In AM or FM mode the SEEK button allows the
rear seat passengers to find the next radio station
up or down the station band frequency.
In CD mode the SEEK button allows the rear
passengers to find the next or previous selection
on the CD.NEXT button:
When the NEXT button is pushed while in AM or
FM mode, the radio will change to the next preset.
The NEXT button does not function while in SAT
radio mode or when playing a DVD or CD.
ANTENNA
Window antenna
The antenna pattern is printed inside the rear
passenger and driver side windows.
CAUTION
cDo not place metalized film near the
rear driver or passenger side window
glass or attach any metal parts to it. This
may cause poor reception or noise.
cWhen cleaning the inside of the rear
driver or passenger side window, be
careful not to scratch or damage the
window antenna. Lightly wipe along the
antenna with a dampened soft cloth.
WARNING
cThe Mobile Entertainment System is
designed for rear seat passenger view-
ing only.
cThe driver must not attempt to operate
the Mobile Entertainment System while
the vehicle is in motion so that full at-
tention may be given to vehicle
operation.
