Predicted course lines*6:
Indicate the predicted course when backing up.
The predicted course lines will be displayed on
the monitor when the selector/shift 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 refer-
ence. The lines are highly affected
by the number of occupants, fuel
level, vehicle position, road condi-
tion and road grade.
. If the tires are replaced with differ-
ent 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 predicted course lines are dis-
played incorrectly, drive the vehicle
on a straight road for 110 yd (100 m)
at a speed of above 20 MPH (30
km/h) .
. 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 reference 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, objects 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 properly judge dis-
tances to other objects. The vehicle width and predicted course
lines are wider than the actual width and
course.

OPERATING TIPS
.When the selector/shift lever is shifted to
the R (Reverse) position, the monitor screen
automatically changes to the RearView
monitor mode.
. It may take some time until the RearView
monitor is displayed after the selector/shift
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 actual object.
. Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark place or at night. This is not a
malfunction.
. 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 discolora-
tion. 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.
