{CAUTION:
The Rear Vision Camera (RVC)
system does not replace driver vision.
RVC does not:
Detect objects that are outside the
camera’s eld of view, below the
bumper, or underneath the vehicle.
Detect children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, or pets.
Do not back the vehicle by only looking at
the rear vision camera screen, or use the
screen during longer, higher speed
backing maneuvers or where there could
be cross-traffic. Your judged distances
using the screen will differ from actual
distances.
So if you do not use proper care before
backing up, you could hit a vehicle, child,
pedestrian, bicyclist, or pet, resulting in
vehicle damage, injury, or death. Even
though the vehicle has the RVC system,
always check carefully before backing up
by checking behind your vehicle.

Area Displayed On Screen
The image is provided by the camera located on
the rear bumper.The camera uses a special lens. The distance of
the image that appears on the screen differs
from the actual distance. The area displayed by
the camera is limited. The camera does not display
objects which are close to either corner of the
bumper or under the bumper. The spare tire and
carrier extends rearward of the rear bumper.
The area displayed on the screen may vary
according to vehicle orientation or road conditions.
Notice:The spare tire extends farther away
from rear of the vehicle than the trailer
hitch shown on rear vision camera display.
Your spare tire could hit an object even though
there appears to be enough distance on the
display between the trailer hitch and objects
behind you causing vehicle or property
damage. Do not use this system to judge the
distance between the spare tire and objects
behind you.
The following illustration shows the eld of view
that the camera provides.
