Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-35
OPERATING TIPS
.When the shift lever is shifted to the R
(Reverse) position, the monitor screen auto-
matically changes to the RearView Monitor
mode. However, the radio can be heard.
. When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display
objects. This is not a malfunction.
. When strong light is directly coming on the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly. This is not a malfunction.
. 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 fluorescent
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 objects clearly. Clean the camera.
. Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to
clean the camera. This will cause discolora-
tion. 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 affected.
. Do not use wax on the camera window.
Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth
dampened with mild detergent diluted with
water. When you push the CAMERA button on the
center multi-function control panel or shift the

There are some areas where the system 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’s-eye view, a tall object near the seam of the
camera viewing areas will not appear in the

WARNING
. The Around View Monitor is a con-
venience but it is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation because it
has areas where objects cannot be
viewed. The four corners of the
vehicle in particular, are blind spots
where objects do not appear in the
bird’s-eye, front, or rear views. Al-
ways look out the windows and
check with your own eyes to be sure
that it is safe to move before
operating the vehicle. Always oper-
ate the vehicle slowly.
. Do not use the Around View Monitor
with the outside mirror in the stored
position, and make sure that the lift
gate is securely closed when oper-
ating 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 above the
front grille, the outside mirrors and
above the rear license plate. Do not
put anything on the cameras. .
When washing the vehicle with
highpressure water, be sure not to
spray it around the cameras. Other-
wise, water may enter the camera
unit causing water condensation on
the lens, a malfunction, 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 lens when cleaning
dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.

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.
