Instruments and controls2-27

Be sure you do not put anything on top of
the autolight sensor located in the top side
1of the instrument panel. The autolight
sensor controls the autolight; if it is cov-
ered, the autolight sensor reacts as if it is
dark out and the headlights will illuminate.
If this occurs while parked with the engine
off and the ignition switch placed in the ON
position, your vehicle’s battery could be-
come discharged.

WARNING
●Never rely solely on the hill descent
control system to control vehicle speed
when driving on steep downhill grades.
Always drive carefully when using the
hill descent control system and deceler-
ate the vehicle speed by depressing the
brake pedal if necessary. Be especially
careful when driving on frozen, muddy
or extremely steep downhill roads. Fail-
ure to control vehicle speed may result
in a loss of control of the vehicle and
possible serious injury or death. ●
The hill descent control may not control
the vehicle speed on a hill under all load
or road conditions. Always be prepared
to depress the brake pedal to control
vehicle speed. Failure to do so may re-
sult in a collision or serious personal
injury.
CAUTION
When the hill descent control system op-
erates continuously for a long time, the
temperature of the brake pads may in-
crease and the hill descent control system
may be temporarily disabled (the indicator
light will blink) . If the indicator light does
not come on continuously after blinking,
stop using the system.
The hill descent control system is designed to
reduce driver workload when going down steep
hills. The hill descent control system helps to
control vehicle speed so the driver can concen-
trate on steering the vehicle.
To activate the hill descent control system: ● activate the AWD LOCK switch,
● the transmission shift lever must be in for-
ward or reverse gear, ●
the hill descent control system switch must
be ON.
The vehicle speed must be kept below 15 MPH
(25 km/h).
The hill descent control indicator light will come
on when the system is activated. Also, the
stop/tail lights illuminate while the hill descent
control system applies the brakes to control ve-
hicle speed.
If the accelerator or brake pedal is depressed
while the hill descent control system is on, the
system will stop operating temporarily. As soon
as the accelerator or brake pedal is released, the
hill descent control system begins to function
again if the hill descent control operating condi-
tions are fulfilled.
The hill descent control indicator light blinks if the
switch is on and all conditions for system activa-
tion are not met or if the system becomes disen-
gaged for any reason.
To turn off the hill descent control system, push
the switch to the OFF position.
For additional information, refer to “Hill descent
control system on indicator light” in this section
and “Hill descent control system” in the “Starting
and driving” section of this manual.

ADJUSTING THE SCREEN
The procedure for adjusting the quality of the
screen differs depending on the type of screen
present on the vehicle.
For vehicles without Navigation System:1. Firmly apply your foot to the brake and put the vehicle into R (reverse) .
2. Press the ENTER/SETTING button.
3. Turn the TUNE/SCROLL or TUNE/FOLDER knob to highlight the “Brightness” or “Con-
trast” key.
4. Press the ENTER/SETTING button.
5.
Adjust the level using the TUNE/SCROLL or
TUNE/FOLDER knob and then press the
ENTER/SETTING button to apply the adjustment.
●Do not adjust the Brightness or Contrast of the
RearView Monitor while the vehicle is moving.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
PREDICTED AND ACTUAL
DISTANCES
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 objects.Backing up on a steep uphill
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the dis-
tance guide lines and the vehicle width guide
lines are shown closer 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 the place
B. Note that any object on
the hill is further than it appears on the monitor.

The display will switch from the Around View
Monitor screen when:● The shift lever is in the D (Drive) position and
the vehicle speed increases above approxi-
mately 6 mph (10 km/h)
● A different screen is selected.
HOW TO ADJUST THE CAMERA
SETTINGS

[
] button.
2. Touch the SETTINGS key.
3. Touch the SYSTEM key.
4. Select CAMERA SETTINGS.
5. Use the TUNE-SCROLL knob and the ENTER/AUDIO button to switch between

firmly applied.
MOVING OBJECT DETECTION
(MOD) (if so equipped)
The MOD system can inform the driver of moving
objects behind the vehicle when backing out of
garages, maneuvering in 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 (Park) or N
(Neutral) 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 (Drive) posi-
tion and the vehicle speed is below approxi-
mately 5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD system
detects moving objects in the front view.
● When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position and the vehicle speed is below ap-
proximately 5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD sys-
tem detects moving objects in the rear 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 system icon
is not displayed on the screen when in this view.WARNING
●
The MOD system is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation and does not
prevent contact with the objects sur-
rounding the vehicle. When maneuver-
ing, always use the outside mirror and
rear view mirror and turn and look to
check the surroundings to make sure it
is safe to maneuver.
● The MOD system is not designed to
detect surrounding stationary objects.
