connected to the auxiliary input jacks in the
center console. (See “AUXILIARY INPUT JACKS”
later in this section.) Push the DISC·AUX (with

detecting large stationary objects to help avoid
damaging the vehicle. The system will not de-
tect small objects below the bumper and may
not detect objects close to the bumper or on the
ground.
WARNING
●
The rearview camera is a convenience but it
is not a substitute for proper backing up.
Always turn and check that it is safe to do so
before backing up. Always back up slowly.
● Objects viewed in the RearView Monitor dif-
fer from actual distance because a wide-
angle lens is used. Objects in the RearView
Monitor will appear visually opposite like
ones viewed in the inside and outside
mirrors.
● Make sure that the back door is securely
closed when backing up.
● Underneath the bumper and the corner areas
of the bumper cannot be viewed on the rear-
view monitor because of its monitoring
range limitation. ●
Do not put anything on the rearview camera.
The rearview camera is installed above the
license plate.
● When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. Otherwise, water may
enter the camera unit causing water conden-
sation on the lens, a malfunction, fire or an
electric shock.
● Do not strike the camera. It is a precision
instrument. Otherwise, it may malfunction
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.

WARNING
●The Around View Monitor is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper vehicle
operation because it has areas where ob-
jects cannot be viewed. Always look out the
windows and check mirrors to be sure that it
is safe to move before operating the vehicle.
Always operate the vehicle slowly.
● Do not use the Around View Monitor with the
outside mirror in the stored position, and
make sure that the lift gate is securely
closed when operating the vehicle using the
Around View Monitor.
● The distance between objects viewed on the
Around View Monitor differs from the actual
distance.
● The cameras are installed above the front
grille, the outside mirrors and above the rear
license plate. Do not put anything on the
cameras.
● When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the cameras. Otherwise, water may
enter the camera unit causing water conden-
sation on the lens, a malfunction, fire or an
electric shock. ●
Do not strike the cameras. They are precision
instruments. Doing so could cause a mal-
function or cause damage resulting in a fire
or an electric shock.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the lens when cleaning dirt or
snow from the front of the camera.
NOTE:
The color of the view on the Around View Monitor
display is different from the actual view because
the system uses infrared cameras.

when the vehicle is on a paved, level surface.
The distance viewed on the monitor is for
reference only and may be different than the
actual distance between the vehicle and dis-
played objects.
● Use the displayed lines and the bird-eye
view as a reference. The lines and the bird-
eye view are greatly affected by the number
of occupants, fuel level, vehicle position,
road condition and road grade. ●
If the tires are replaced with different sized
tires, the predicted course line and the bird-
eye view may be displayed incorrectly.
● When driving the vehicle up a hill, objects
viewed in the monitor are further than they
appear. When driving the vehicle down a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are closer than
they appear. Use the mirrors or actually look
to properly judge distances to other objects.
The vehicle width and predicted course lines
are wider than the actual width and course.
