HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED LINES
Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle width
and distances to objects with reference to the
bumper line
sAare displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the bumper.
c Red line
s1: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
c Yellow line
s2: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
c Green line
s3: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
c Green line
s4: approx. 10 ft (3 m) Vehicle width guide lines
s5:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up.
Predicted course lines
s6:
Indicate the predicted course when backing up.
The predicted course lines will be displayed on
the monitor when the selector lever is in the R (
Reverse) position and the steering wheel is
turned. The predicted course lines will move
depending on how much the steering wheel is
turned and will not be displayed while the
steering wheel is in the neutral position.
HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED
COURSE LINES
WARNING
c Always turn and check that it is safe to do so
before backing up. Always back up slowly.
c Use the displayed lines as a reference. The
lines are highly affected by the number of
occupants, fuel level, vehicle position, road
condition and road grade.
c If the tires are replaced with different sized
tires, the predicted course line may be dis-
played incorrectly. c
On a snow-covered or slippery road, there
may be a difference between the predicted
course line and the actual course line.
c If the battery is disconnected or becomes
discharged, the predicted course lines may
be displayed incorrectly. If this occurs, drive
the vehicle on a straight road for more than 5
minutes.
c When the steering wheel is turned with the
ignition switch in the ACC position, the pre-
dicted course lines may be displayed
incorrectly.
c The displayed lines will appear slightly off to
the right because the rear view camera is not
installed in the rear center of the vehicle.
c The distance guide line and the vehicle
width guide line should be used as a refer-
ence only when the vehicle is on a level
paved surface. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance between
the vehicle and displayed objects.

Backing up behind a projecting
object
The positionsCis shown further than the
position
sBin the display. However, the posi-
tion
sCis actually at the same distance as the

sA. The vehicle may hit the object when backing up to the position
sAif the object

HOW TO ADJUST THE SCREEN
To adjust the Display ON/OFF, Brightness, Tint,
Color, Contrast and Black Level of the RearView
Monitor, push the SETTINGbutton with the
RearView Monitor on, select the item key and
adjust the level using the INFINITI controller.
Do not adjust the Brightness, Tint, Color, Con-
trast and Black Level of the RearView Monitor
while the vehicle is moving. Make sure the
parking brake is firmly applied and the engine
is not running.
OPERATING TIPS
c When the selector lever is shifted to the R
(Reverse) position, the monitor screen auto-
matically changes to the RearView Monitor
mode. However, the radio can be heard.
c It may take some time until the RearView
Monitor or the normal screen is displayed
after the selector lever has been shifted to R
from another position or to another position
from R. Objects may be distorted momen-
tarily until the RearView Monitor screen is
displayed completely. c
When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display
objects. This is not a malfunction.
c When strong light directly enters the cam-
era, objects may not be displayed clearly.
This is not a malfunction.
c Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the
screen. This is due to strong reflected light
from the bumper. This is not a malfunction.
c The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light. This is not a malfunction.
c The colors of objects on the RearView Moni-
tor may differ somewhat from those of the
actual object.
c Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark place or at night. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
c If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera,
the RearView Monitor may not clearly dis-
play objects. Clean the camera.
c Do 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 diluted mild cleaning agent
and then wipe with a dry cloth.
c Do not damage the camera as the monitor
screen may be adversely affected.
