Vehicle width guide lines5:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up.
Predicted course lines
6:
Indicate the predicted course when backing up.
The predicted course lines will be displayed on
the monitor when the shift selector is in the R
(Reverse) position and the steering wheel is
turned. The predicted course lines will move de-
pending on how much the steering wheel is
turned and will not be displayed while the steer-
ing wheel is in the neutral position.
The vehicle width guide lines and the width of the
predicted course lines are wider than the actual
width and course.
WARNING
●Always turn and check that it is safe to
do so before backing up. Always back
up slowly.
●If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course lines
may be displayed incorrectly.
●On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predicted course line and the actual
course line.●The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line and predicted course lines
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.
●When backing up the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are fur-
ther than they appear. When backing up
the vehicle down a hill, objects viewed
in the monitor are closer than they ap-
pear. Use the inside mirror or glance
over your shoulder to properly judge
distances to other objects.HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED
COURSE LINES
1. Visually check that the parking space is safe
before parking your vehicle.
2. The rear view of the vehicle is displayed on
the screen
Awhen the shift lever is moved
to the R (Reverse) position.

There are some areas where the system will not
show objects and the system does not warn of
moving objects. When in the front or rearview
display, an object below the bumper or on the
ground may not be viewed

WARNING
●The Around View Monitor is a conve-
nience feature. 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
to be sure that it is safe to move.
●The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
●Do not use the Around View Monitor
with the outside mirror in the stored
position, and make sure that the liftgate
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.
●The cameras are installed on the front
grille, the outside mirrors and above the
rear license plate. Do not put anything
on the cameras.●When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the cameras. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock.
●Do not strike the cameras. They are
precision instruments. Doing so could
cause a malfunction or cause damage
resulting in a fire or an electric shock.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.
AVAILABLE VIEWS
WARNING
●The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a paved,
level surface. The distance viewed on
the monitor may be different than the
actual distance between the vehicle and
displayed objects.
LHA2776
4-30Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
●The distance between objects viewed in
the rearview differs from the actual dis-
tance since because of a wide-angle
lens is used.
●Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-
eye view as a reference. The lines and
the bird’s-eye view are greatly affected
by the number of occupants, fuel level,
vehicle position, road condition and
road grade.
●If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course lines
and the bird’s-eye view may be dis-
played incorrectly.
●When driving the vehicle up a hill, ob-
jects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When driving the ve-
hicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear.
Use the mirrors or actually look to prop-
erly judge distances to other objects.
●Objects in the monitor will appear visu-
ally opposite than when viewed in the
rearview and outside mirrors.
●On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predictive course lines and the actual
course line.●The displayed lines on the rearview will
appear slightly off to the right because
the rearview camera is not installed in
the rear center of the vehicle.
●The vehicle width and predictive course
lines are wider than the actual width
and course.
Front and rearview
Guiding lines, which indicate the vehicle width
and distance to objects with reference to the
vehicle body line
A, are displayed on the moni-
tor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the vehicle body:
●Red line
1: approximately 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
●Yellow line

displayed. It will be shown only the first time after
the ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
When the corner of the vehicle moves closer to
an object, the corner sonar indicators
3appear.
When the center of the vehicle moves close to an
object, the center sonar indicator
4appears (if
so equipped) .
The driver can check the direction and angle of
the tire on the display by tire icon
5when driving
the vehicle forward or backward.
Predictive course lines (
6and7) indicate the
predictive course when operating the vehicle.
The predictive course lines will be displayed on
the monitor when the steering wheel is turned.
The predictive course lines will move depending
on how much the steering wheel is turned and
will not be displayed while the steering wheel is in
the neutral position.
When the monitor displays the front view and the
steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or less
from the neutral position, the two green predic-
tive course lines
6are shown in front of the
vehicle.
When the steering wheel turns about 90 degrees
or more, one green predictive course lines is
shown in front of the vehicle and other green
predictive course lines
7is shown at side of the
vehicle.When the monitor displays the rear view, the
predictive course lines are shown at back of the
vehicle.
WARNING
●Objects in the bird’s-eye view will ap-
pear further than the actual distance
because the bird’s-eye view is a pseudo
view that is processed by combining the
views from the cameras on the outside
mirrors, the front and the rear of the
vehicle.
●Tall objects, such as a curb or vehicle,
may be misaligned or not displayed at
the seam of the views.
●Objects that are above the camera can-
not be displayed.
●The view of the bird’s-eye view may be
misaligned when the camera position
alters.
●A line on the ground may be misaligned
and is not seen as being straight at the
seam of the views. The misalignment
will increase as the line proceeds away
from the vehicle.
●Tire angle display does not indicate the
actual tire angle.
Front-side view
Guiding lines:
Guiding lines that indicate the width and the front
end of the vehicle are displayed on the monitor.
The front-of-vehicle line

MOVING OBJECT DETECTION
(MOD)
The Moving Object Detection (MOD) system can
inform the driver of the moving objects surround-
ing the vehicle when driving out of garages, ma-
neuvering into parking lots and in other such
instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the image
shown in the display.The MOD system operates in the following con-
ditions when the camera view is displayed:
●When the shift lever is in the P or N position
and the vehicle is stopped, the MOD system
detects the moving objects in the bird’s-eye
view. The MOD system will not operate if the
outside mirror is moving in or out or if either
door is opened.
●When the shift lever is in the D position and
the vehicle speed is below 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 position and
the vehicle speed is below approximately
5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD system detects
moving objects in the rearview or rear-wide
view. The MOD system will not operate if the
liftgate is open.
The MOD system does not detect moving ob-
jects in the front-side view. The MOD icon is not
displayed on the screen when in this view.
WARNING
●The MOD system is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation and is not de-
signed to prevent contact with the ob-
jects surrounding the vehicle. When
maneuvering, always use the outside
mirror and rear view mirror and turn and
check the surrounding to ensure it is
safe to maneuver.
●The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated
at lower speeds
●The system is not designed to prevent
contact with all objects.
●The MOD system does not have the
function to detect the surrounding sta-
tionary objects.
4-40Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
To set the MOD system so that it remains off at all
times, use the camera settings menu. See
“Around View Monitor settings” in this section for
more information.
WARNING
●Do not use the MOD system when tow-
ing a trailer. The system may not func-
tion 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 blinking source of
light.
– When strong light such as another
vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is
present.
– When camera orientation is not in its
usual position, such as when mirror
is folded.– When there is dirt, water drops or
snow on the camera lens.
– When the position of the moving ob-
jects in the display is not changed.
●The MOD system might detect 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 sens-
ing zone may be altered and the MOD
system may not detect objects properly.
●When the temperature is extremly high
or low, the screen may not display ob-
jects clearly. This is not a malfunction.
Camera maintenance
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the camera,
the MOD system may not operate properly. Clean
the camera.
