when a corner of the vehicle moves closer
to an object.
The corner sonar indicator
*4can be
turned off. See “Around view monitor
settings” (P.4-42).
CAUTION
The turn signal light may look like the side-
of-vehicle line. This is not a malfunction.

Rear-wide view
The rear-wide view shows a wider area on
the entire screen and allows the checking
of the blind corners on the right and left
sides. The rear-wide view displays an
approximately 180-degree area while the
front view and the rearview display an
approximately 150-degree area. The pre-
dictive course lines are not displayed on
the rear-wide view.
Distance guide lines:
Indicates distances from the vehicle body.
.Red line
*1: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m) .
Yellow line
*2: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
. Green line
*3: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
. Green line
*4: approx. 10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines
*5:
Indicates the vehicle width when backing
up.
The corner sonar indicator
*6will appear
when a corner of the vehicle moves closer
to an object.

SAA1978
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTIVE
AND ACTUAL DISTANCES
Moving to a steep uphill
When moving the vehicle up a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width
guide lines are shown closer than theactual distance. For example, the display
shows 3 ft (1.0 m) to the place
*A, but the
actual 3 ft (1.0 m) distance on the hill is
the place
*B. Note that any object on the
hill is viewed in the monitor further than it
appears.
SAA1979
Moving to a steep downhill
When moving the vehicle down a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width
guide lines are shown further than the
actual distance. For example, the display
shows 3 ft (1.0 m) to the place
*A, but the
actual 3 ft (1.0 m) distance on the hill is

Moving near a projecting object
The predictive course lines*Ado not
touch the object in the display. However,
the vehicle may hit the object if it projects
over the actual moving course.

Moving closer to a projecting object

actual moving course.
CAMERA AIDING CORNER SONAR
FUNCTION
When the corner of the vehicle moves
closer to the object while the Around View
Monitor is displayed, an indicator is
displayed and a tone is sounded by the
corner sonar function to warn the driver.
The color of the corner sonar indicator and
the pattern of the tone vary according to
the distance to the object.
When the object is detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks and the tone
sounds intermittently. When the vehicle
moves closer to the object, the color of the
indicator turns yellow and the rate of the
blinking and the volume of the tone
increase. When the corner of the vehicle
is very close to the object, the indicator
stops blinking and turns red, and the tone
sounds continuously.
Keep the corner sonars (located on the
front and rear bumper fascia) free from
snow, ice and large accumulations of dirt.
Do not clean the sensors with sharp
objects. If the sensors are covered, the
accuracy of the corner sonar function will
be diminished.
WARNING
.The system is not designed to prevent
contact with small or moving objects.
. The colors of the corner sonar indicator
and the distance guide lines in the front/
rearview indicate different distances to
the object.
. Inclement weather may affect the func-
tion of the corner sonar system; this
may include reduced performance or a
false activation.
. This function is designed as an aid to
the driver in detecting large stationary
objects to help avoid damaging the
vehicle. The system will not detect small
objects below the bumper, and may not
detect objects close to the bumper or on
the ground.
. 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-
stacles or false alarms.
CAUTION
Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible to hear the tone clearly.

OPERATING TIPS
.
The screen displayed on the Around
View Monitor will automatically return
to the previous screen 3 minutes after
the CAMERA button has been pushed
while the select lever is in a position
other than the R (Reverse) position.
. The display of images on the screen
may be delayed after screens are
switched. Objects in the Around View
Monitor may be distorted momentarily
until the Around View Monitor screen is
displayed completely.
. When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not display
objects clearly. This is not a malfunc-

tion.
. When strong light directly shines on the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly. This is not a malfunction.
. The screen may flicker under fluores-
cent light. This is not a malfunction.
. The colors of objects on the Around
View Monitor may differ somewhat
from those of the actual object.
. Objects on the monitor may not be clear
and the color of the object may differ in
a dark environment. This is not a
malfunction.
. There may be differences in clearness
between each camera view of the bird-
eye view.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the
camera, the Around View Monitor may
not display objects clearly. Clean the
camera.
. Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner
to clean the camera. This will cause
discoloration. To clean the camera,
wipe with a cloth that has been
dampened with a diluted mild cleaning
agent and then wipe with a dry cloth.
. Do not damage the camera because the
monitor screen may be adversely af-
fected. .
Do not use wax on the camera lens.
Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth that
has been dampened with a mild
detergent diluted with water.

WARNING
. The air conditioner cooling function
operates only when the engine is run-
ning.
. Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the support of
others alone in your vehicle. Pets should
not be left alone either. On hot, sunny
days, temperatures in a closed vehicle
could quickly become high enough to
cause severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals.
. Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.
Start the engine and operate the automatic
climate control system.
NOTE:
.Odors from inside and outside the
vehicle can build up in the air condi-
tioner unit. Odor can enter the passen-
ger compartment through the vents.
. When parking, set the heater and air
conditioner controls to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into the passenger compartment. This
should help reduce odors inside the
vehicle.
When the “STATUS”button is pushed, the
automatic climate control status screen
will appear. (See “How to use STATUS
button” (P.4-10).)
