The instructions given are only guide-
lines. When and how much to turn the
steering wheel will vary according to
traffic conditions, road surface condi-
tions, vehicle condition, etc. when
parking. It is necessary to be fully
aware of this before using the parking
assist system.
When parking, be sure to check that
the parking space will accommodate
your vehicle before maneuvering into
it.
Do not use the parking assist monitor
system in the following cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or in
snow
• When using tyre chains or emer-
gency tires
• When the back door is not closed
completely
• On roads that are not flat or straight,
such as curves or slopes.
In low temperatures, the screen may
darken or the image may become
faint. The image could distort when
the vehicle is moving, or you may
become unable to see the image on
the screen. Be sure to visually check
all around the vehicle both directly
and using the mirrors before proceed-
ing.
If the tyre sizes are changed, the posi-
tion of the guide lines displayed on
the screen may change.
The camera uses a special lens. The
distances between objects and pedes-
trians that appear in the image dis-
played on the screen will differ from
the actual distances. (P.314)
