7. Monitor system
7-14
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h), the
MOD system detects moving objects in
the front view or front-wide view.
. When the shift lever is in the R
(Reverse) position and the vehicle
speed is below approximately 5 MPH
(8 km/h), the MOD system detects
moving objects in the rear view or
rear-wide view. The MOD system will
not operate if the trunk lid is open.
INFO:
.
The MOD system does not detect moving
objects in the front-side view. The MOD
indicator is not displayed on the screen
when in this view.
.While the sonar/BCI warning tone is beep-
ing, the MOD system does not chime.
WARNING!
. The MOD system is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation and is not
designed to prevent contact with the
objects surrounding the vehicle. When
maneuvering, always use the outside
mirror and rearview mirror and turn and
check the surrounding area to ensure it is safe to maneuver.
. The MOD system does not have the
function to detect the surrounding sta-
tionary objects.
. Do not use the MOD system when towing
a trailer. The system may not function
properly.
. Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume or open vehicle window)
will interfere with the chime sound, and
it may not be heard.
. The MOD system performance will be
limited according to environmental con-
ditions and surrounding objects such as:
— When there is low contrast between
background and the moving objects.
— When there is a blinking source of
light.
— When strong light such as another
vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is pre-
sent.
— When camera orientation is not in its
usual position, such as when a mirror
is folded.
— When there is dirt, water drops or
snow on the camera lens. —
When the position of the moving
objects in the display is not changed.
. The MOD system might detect something
like flowing water droplets on the camera
lens, white smoke from the muffler,
moving shadows, etc.
. The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, direc-
tion, distance or shape of the moving
objects.
. If your vehicle sustains damage to the
parts where the camera is installed,
leaving it misaligned or bent, the sensing
zone may be altered and the MOD system
may not detect objects properly.
