HOW TO READ DISPLAYED LINES
Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle
width and distances to objects with re-
ference to the bumper line
*Aare dis-
played on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the bumper.
. 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:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up.
Predictive course lines
*6:
Indicate the predictive course when back-
ing up. The predictive course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when the shift
lever is in the R (Reverse) position and 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.
The vehicle width guide lines and the width
of the predictive course lines are wider
than the actual width and course.
WARNING
. Always turn and check that it is safe to
park your car before backing up. Always
back up slowly.
. If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course line
may not be displayed correctly.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predictive course line and the actual
course line. .
The displayed lines will appear slightly
off to the right because the rearview
camera is not installed in the rear center
of the vehicle.
. 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 ob-
jects.
. When backing up the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When backing up the
vehicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear. Use
the inside mirror or glance over your
shoulder to properly judge distances to
other objects.

HOW TO ADJUST SCREEN
To adjust the Display ON/OFF, Brightness,
Tint, Color, Contrast and Black Level of the
rearview monitor, push theSETTINGbutton
with the rearview monitor on, select the
“Display” key on the screen and select the
item key and adjust the level using the
INFINITI controller.
Do not adjust the Brightness, Tint, Color,
Contrast and Black Level of the rearview
monitor while the vehicle is moving. Make
sure the parking brake is firmly applied.
OPERATING TIPS
. When the shift lever is shifted to the R
(Reverse) position, the monitor screen
automatically changes to the RearView
monitor mode. However, the radio can
be heard.
. When the view is switched, the display
images on the screen may be displayed
with some delay.
. When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not clearly
display objects. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
. When strong light is directly coming on
the camera, objects may not be dis-
played clearly. This is not a malfunc- tion.
. Vertical lines may be seen in objects on
the screen. This is due to strong
reflected light from the bumper. This
is not a malfunction.
. The screen may flicker under fluores-
cent light. This is not a malfunction.
. The colors of objects on the RearView
monitor may differ somewhat from the
actual color of objects. This is not a
malfunction.
. Objects on the monitor may not be clear
in a dark environment. This is not a
malfunction.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the
camera, the RearView monitor may not
display object clearly. Clean the cam-
era.
. Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner
to clean the camera. This will cause
discoloration. To clean the camera,
wipe with a cloth dampened with
diluted mild cleaning agent and then
wipe with a dry cloth.
. Do not damage the camera as the
monitor screen may be adversely af-
fected.
. Do not use wax on the camera window.
Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth dampened with mild detergent diluted
with water.
4-34Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
.When selecting the “Change View”key
on the screen, the view on the screen
will switch between the available views
*11/*13/*20.
. The view on the driver’s side or the wide
view switches to the rear view
*B/*C/*Dwhen the shift lever is
shifted into the R (Reverse) position
*15/*17/*19. The view on the driver’s
side or the wide view returns to the
front view
*E/*F/*Gwhen the shift
lever is shifted out of the R (Reverse)
position
*14/*16/*18.
. Push another button on the control
panel to quit the Around View Monitor.
HOW TO SEE EACH VIEW
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 is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance be-
tween the vehicle and displayed objects.
. Use the displayed lines and the bird-eye
view as a reference. The lines and the bird-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 line
and the bird-eye view may be displayed
incorrectly.
. When driving the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When driving the
vehicle down a hill, objects viewed in
the monitor are closer than they appear.
Use the mirrors or actually look to
properly judge distances to other ob-
jects.
. The vehicle width and predictive course
lines are wider than the actual width and
course.
. The distance between objects viewed in
the rearview differs from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens is used.
Objects in the rearview will appear
visually 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 line 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.

.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
JVH0265X
The bird-eye view shows the overhead view
of the vehicle, which helps confirm the
vehicle position and the predicted course
to a parking space.
The vehicle icon
*1shows the position of
the vehicle. Note that the size of the
vehicle icon on the bird-eye view may
differ somewhat from the actual vehicle.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
*2are indicated in black. The non-viewable
area
*2is highlighted in yellow for several
seconds after the bird-eye view is dis-
played. 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
*3appears.
The driver can check the direction and
angle of the tire on the display by tire icon
*4when driving the vehicle forward or
backward.
Predictive course lines (
*5and*6)
indicate the predictive course when oper-
ating the vehicle. The predictive course
lines will be displayed on the monitor
when the steering wheel is turned. The
predictive course lines will move depend-
ing 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 predictive course lines
*5are shown in front of the vehicle.
When the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or more, one green predictive
course line
*6is shown in front of the
vehicle and the other green predictive
course line
*6is shown at side of the
vehicle.
When the monitor displays the rear view,
the predictive course lines are shown at
back of the vehicle.
SAA1842
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
*1shows the front
part of the vehicle.
The side-of-vehicle line
*2shows the
vehicle width including the outside mirror.
The extensions
*3of both the front*1and side*2lines are shown with a green
dotted line.
The corner sonar indicator
*4will appear 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.4-45).

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 oflight.
—When strong light such as anothervehicle’ 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 orsnow on the camera lens.
—When the position of the movingobjects in the display is not changed.
. The MOD system might detect some-
thing like flowing water droplets on the
camera lens, white smoke from the
