HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED
LINES
Lines which indicate the vehicle clearance and
distances to objects with reference to the bum-
per line
Aare displayed on the monitor.
They are indicated as reference distances to
objects. The lines and colors in the display indi-
cate distances from the back bumper line
Ain
the illustration.
11.5 ft (0.5 m) red
23 ft (1 m) yellow
37 ft (2 m) green
410 ft (3 m) green (models without Navigation
System only)
The vehicle clearance lines are wider than
the actual clearance.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
PREDICTED AND ACTUAL
DISTANCES
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.

CAUTION
●
Do not force the iPod® cable into the
USB port. Inserting the USB device
tilted or up-side-down into the port may
damage the iPod® cable and the port.
Make sure that the iPod® cable is con-
nected correctly into the USB port.
(Some iPod® cables come with a
mark as a guide. Make sure that the
mark is facing the correct direction be-
fore inserting the iPod® cable.)
● Do not locate objects near the iPod®
cable to prevent the objects from lean-
ing on the iPod® cable and the port.
Pressure from the objects may damage
the iPod® cable and the port.
To connect an iPod® to the vehicle so that the
iPod® can be controlled with the audio system
controls and display screen, use the USB jack
located on the center console near the parking
brake and power outlet. Open the protective
cover on the USB jack and then connect the
iPod®-specific end of the cable to the iPod®
and the USB end of the cable to the USB jack on
the vehicle
1. If your iPod® supports charging
via a USB connection, its battery will be charged while connected to the vehicle with the ignition
switch in the ACC or ON position.
While connected to the vehicle, the iPod® can
only be operated by the vehicle audio controls.
To disconnect the iPod® from the vehicle, re-
move the USB end of the cable from the USB
jack on the vehicle, then remove the cable from
the iPod®.

●Above 40 MPH (64 km/h), it is more
efficient to use A/C to cool the vehicle
due to increased aerodynamic drag
● Recirculating the cool air in the cabin
when the A/C is on reduces cooling load
4. Drive at Economical Speeds and Dis-
tances
● Observing the speed limit and not ex-
ceeding 60 MPH (97 km/h) (where le-
gally allowed) can improve fuel efficiency
due to reduced aerodynamic drag
● Maintaining a safe following distance be-
hind other vehicles reduces unnecessary
braking
● Safely monitoring traffic to anticipate
changes in speed permits reduced brak-
ing and smooth acceleration changes
● Select a gear range suitable to road con-
ditions.
5. Use Cruise Control
● Using cruise control during highway driv-
ing helps maintain a steady speed
● Cruise control is particularly effective in
providing fuel savings when driving on flat
terrains 6.
Plan for the Shortest Route
● Utilize a map or navigation system to de-
termine the best route to save time
7. Avoid Idling
● Shutting off your engine when safe for
stops exceeding 30–60 seconds saves
fuel and reduces emissions
8. Buy an Automated Pass for Toll Roads
● Automated passes permit drivers to use
special lanes to maintain cruising speed
through the toll and avoid stopping and
starting
9. Winter Warm Up
● Limit idling time to minimize impact to fuel
economy
● Vehicles typically need no more than
30 seconds of idling at start-up to effec-
tively circulate the engine oil before driv-
ing
● Your vehicle will reach its ideal operating
temperature more quickly while driving
versus idling 10.
Keeping your Vehicle Cool
● Park your vehicle in a covered parking
area or in the shade whenever possible
● When entering a hot vehicle, opening the
windows will help to reduce the inside
temperature faster, resulting in reduced
demand on your A/C system
