OUTSIDE MIRRORS
WARNING
Objects viewed in the outside mirror on the
passenger side are closer than they appear. Be
careful when moving to the right. Using only
this mirror could cause an accident. Use the
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder to
properly judge distances to other objects.
Adjusting outside mirrors
The outside mirror control switch is located on
the armrest.
The outside mirror will operate only when the
ignition switch is in the ACC or ON position.
Turn the switch right or left to select the right or
left side mirror
1, then adjust using the con-
trol switch
2.
Defrosting outside mirrors
The outside mirrors will be heated when the
rear window defroster switch is operated.
Foldable outside mirrors
Fold the outside mirror by pushing it toward the
rear of the vehicle.
Reverse tilt-down feature (if so
equipped)
When backing up the vehicle, the right or left
outside mirror will turn downward automatically
to provide better rear visibility.
1. Push the ignition switch to the ON posi- tion.
2. Move the selector lever to the R (Reverse) position.
3. Choose the right or left outside mirror by operating the outside mirror control
switch.

OPERATING TIPS
●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.
● It may take some time until the rearview
monitor is displayed after the selector lever
has been shifted to R from another position
or to another position from R. Objects may
be distorted momentarily until the rearview
monitor screen is displayed completely.
● When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display
objects. This is not a malfunction.
● When strong light directly enters the cam-
era, objects may not be displayed clearly.
This is not a malfunction.
● 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.
● The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light. This is not a malfunction.
● The colors of objects on the rearview monitor
may differ somewhat from those of the ac-
tual object. ●
Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark place or at night. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
● If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera,
the rearview monitor may not clearly display
objects. Clean the camera.
● Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to
clean the camera. This will cause discolor-
ation. To clean the camera, wipe with a cloth
dampened with diluted mild cleaning agent
and then wipe with a dry cloth.
● Do not damage the camera as the monitor
screen may be adversely affected.
● Do not use wax on the camera window. Wipe
off any wax with a clean cloth dampened
with mild detergent diluted with water. When you push the
CAMERAbutton or shift the
selector lever into the R (Reverse) position while
the ignition switch is in the ON position, the
Around View Monitor operates. The monitor
displays various views of the position of the
vehicle.
Available views:
● Bird-Eye View
The surrounding view of the vehicle.
● Front-Side View
The view around and ahead of the front
passenger’s side wheel.
● Front View
The view to the front of the vehicle.
● RearView
The view to the rear of the vehicle.
● Rear-Wide View
An approximately 180-degree view of the
rear of the vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the driver in
situations such as slot parking or parallel
parking.
AROUND VIEW MONITOR (if so equipped)
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-27
There are some areas where the system will not
detect objects. When in the front or the rearview
display, an object below the bumper or on the
ground may not be detected
1. When in thebird-eye view, a tall object near the seam of the
camera detecting areas will not appear in the
monitor
2.
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.

Sonar Display:
When this item is turned on, the corner sonar
indicator is displayed in the front-side view.
Corner Sensor Sensitivity:
Adjust the sensitivity level of the corner sonar
higher (right) or lower (left).
OPERATING TIPS
●The screen displayed on the Around View
Monitor will automatically return to the pre-
vious screen 3 minutes after the CAMERA
button has been pushed while the shift lever
is in a position other than the R (Reverse)
position.
● The display of images on the screen may be
delayed after screens are switched. Objects
in the Around View Monitor may be distorted
momentarily until the Around View Monitor
screen is displayed completely.
● When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not display objects
clearly. This is not a malfunction.
● When strong light directly shines on the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly. This is not a malfunction.
● The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light. This is not a malfunction. ●
The colors of objects on the Around View
Monitor may differ somewhat from those of
the actual object.
● Objects on the monitor may not be clear and
the color of the object may differ in a dark
location or at night. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
● There may be differences in clearness be-
tween each camera view of the bird-eye
view.
● If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera,
the Around View Monitor may not display
objects clearly. Clean the camera.
● Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to
clean the camera. This will cause discolor-
ation. To clean the camera, wipe with a cloth
that has been dampened with a diluted mild
cleaning agent and then wipe with a dry
cloth.
● Do not damage the camera because the
monitor screen may be adversely affected.
● Do not use wax on the camera window. Wipe
off any wax with a clean cloth that has been
dampened with a mild detergent diluted
with water.

WARNING
● The air conditioner cooling function oper-
ates only when the engine is running.
● Do not leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in your vehicle. Pets should not be left alone
either. On hot, sunny days, temperatures in
a closed vehicle could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possibly fatal in-
juries to people or animals.
● Do not use the recirculation mode for long
periods as it may cause the interior air to
become stale and the windows to fog up.
Start the engine and operate the automatic
climate control system.
When the “STATUS” button is pushed, the
automatic climate control status screen will
appear. (See “HOW TO USE STATUS BUTTON”
