Operating tips :
●Only files that meet the following conditions
will be displayed.
– Image type: JPEG
– File Extensions: *.jpg, *jpeg
– Maximum Resolution: 2048 × 1536 pixels
– Maximum Size: 2-MB
– Colors: 32768 (15-bit)
– Maximum File Name lengths: 253-Bytes
– Maximum Folders: 500
– Maximum Images per Folder: 1024
● If an electronic device (such as a digital
camera) is directly connected to the vehicle
using a USB cable, no image will be dis-
played on the screen.
● If the file name is too long, some file names
may not be entirely displayed.
● When the total number of characters in the
file name exceeds 100 or if 1 file name in a
directory exceeds 100 characters, all files
will show a shortened 8-character version.
The image will still be displayed when se-
lected. When the selector lever is shifted into the R
(Reverse) position, the monitor display shows
view to the rear of the vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the driver in
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 monitor is a convenience but it
is not a substitute for proper vehicle opera-
tion because it has areas where objects can-
not 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.
● 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.

or cable is wet. Allow the cable and/or
connectors to dry completely before con-
necting the USB device. If the connector is
exposed to fluids other than water, evapora-
tive residue may cause a short between the
connector pins. ●

sponses in an iPod. The vehicle center
