TION PRECAUTIONS
The system is designed as an aid to the

parallel parking.

will not show objects. When in the front or
the rear view display, an object below the
bumper or on the ground may not be
viewed
*1. When in the bird-eye view, a
tall object near the seam of the camera
viewing areas will not appear in the
monitor
*2.
WARNING!
. The Around View Monitor is a convenient
feature but it is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation because it has
areas where objects cannot be viewed.
Always look out the windows and check
mirrors to be sure that it is safe to move.
The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other maneu-
vers.
. Do not use the Around View Monitor with
the outside mirror in the stored position,
and make sure that the trunk lid is
securely closed when operating the
vehicle using the Around View Monitor.
. The distance between objects viewed on
the Around View Monitor differs from the
actual distance.

CAMERA AIDING SONAR FUNCTION
The sonar (parking sensor) sounds a tone
to inform the driver of obstacles near the
bumper.
WARNING!
. The sonar is a convenience feature. It is
not a substitute for proper parking.
. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other maneu-
vers.
. Always look around and check that it is
safe to move before parking.
. Read and understand the limitations of
the sonar as contained in this section.
. The colors of the sonar indicators and the
distance guide lines in the front, front-
wide, rear and rear-wide views indicate different distances to the object.
. Inclement weather or ultrasonic sources
such as an automatic car wash, a truck’s
compressed-air brakes or a pneumatic
drill may affect the function of the
system; this may include reduced perfor-
mance or a false activation.
. This function is designed as an aid to the
driver in detecting large stationary ob-
jects to help avoid damaging the vehicle.
. The system is not designed to prevent
contact with small or moving objects.
. The system will not detect small objects
below the bumper, and may it not detect
objects close to the bumper or on the
ground.
. The system may not detect the following
objects:
— Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth,
cotton, glass or wool.
— Thin objects such as rope, wire or
chain.
— Wedge-shaped objects.
. If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be altered causing inaccurate measurement of ob-
jects or false alarms.
CAUTION!
.
Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not be
heard.
. Keep the surface of the sonar sensors
(located on the front and rear bumper
fascia) free from accumulations of snow,
ice and dirt. Do not scratch the surface of
the sonar sensors when cleaning. If the
sensors are covered, the accuracy of the
sonar function will be diminished.
The system sounds the tone for front
objects when the shift lever is in the D
(Drive) position and both front and rear
objects when the shift lever is in the R
(Reverse) position.
When the camera image is shown on the
display, the system shows the sonar
indicator regardless of the shift lever
position.
The system is deactivated at speeds above
