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.

HOW TO READ DISPLAYED LINES
Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle width
and distances to objects with reference to the
bumper line
Aare displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the bumper.
● Red line
1: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
● Yellow line
2: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
● Green line
3: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
● Green line
4: approx. 10 ft (3 m) Vehicle width guide lines
5:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up.
Predicted course lines
6:
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
● Always turn and check that it is safe to park
your car before backing up. Always back up
slowly.
● 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.
● If the tires are replaced with different sized
tires, the predicted course line may not be
displayed correctly. ●
On a snow-covered or slippery road, there
may be a difference between the predicted
course line and the actual course line.
● 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.
● The displayed lines will appear slightly off to
the right because the rearview camera is not
installed in the rear center of the vehicle.
● 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.
● When backing up the vehicle up a hill, ob-
jects viewed in the monitor are further than
they appear. When backing up the vehicle
down a hill, objects viewed in the monitor
are closer than they appear. Use the inside
mirror or glance over your shoulder to prop-
erly judge distances to other objects.
