Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in an unexpected
accident. Also, when driving, make sure to directly confirm the safety of your sur-
roundings and the area to the rear of the vehicle.
When using the Multi-terrain Monitor
WA R N I N G
■Conditions under which the Multi-terrain Monitor should not be used
Do not use the Multi-terrain Monitor in th e following situations. The system may not
operate properly, resulting in an unexpected accident.
●When driving on an icy, snow-covered or otherwise slippery road surface
●When using tire chains or a spare tire
●When either front door or the ba ck door is not completely closed
●When driving on an uneven road, such as a hill
●When tires or suspension parts othe r than those specified are equipped
When the tires are replaced, the position indicated by the guide lines displayed on the
screen may differ.
■Guide lines
The tire position indicator lines and vehicle position indicator lines may differ from
actual vehicle positions depending on the number of passengers, cargo weight, road
grade, road surface conditions, brightness of the surrounding environment, etc. Always
drive the vehicle while confirming the safety of your surroundings.

NOTICE
■Pa n o ra m i c v i ew
●In the panoramic view, the system combines images taken from the front, back, left
and right side cameras into a single image. There are limits to the range and content
that can be displayed. Understand the char
acteristics of this system before using.
●Image clarity may decline at the four corners of the panoramic view. However, this is
not a malfunction, as these are the regions along the border of each camera image
where the images are combined.
●Depending on lighting conditions near each of the cameras, bright and dark patches
may appear on the panoramic view.
●The panoramic view display does not extend higher than the installation position and
image capture range of each camera.
●There are blind spots around the vehicle and there are regions that are not displayed
in the panoramic view.
●Three-dimensional objects disp layed in wide front view or rear view may not be dis-
played in the panoramic view.
●People and other three-dimensional obst acles may appear differently when dis-
played in the panoramic view. (These di fferences include, among others, cases in
which displayed objects appear to have fa llen over, disappear near image processing
areas, appear from image processing areas, or when the actual distance to an object
differs from the displayed position.)
●The panoramic view will not be properly disp layed when either front door or the back
door is open.
●The vehicle icon displayed in the panoramic view is a computer generated image, and
properties such as the color, shape and size will differ from the actual vehicle. There-
fore, nearby three-dimensional objects may appear to be touching the vehicle, and
actual distances to three- dimensional objects may diff er from those displayed.

■Panoramic view display range
●In the panoramic view, the system processes
and displays images acquired form the 4
cameras under the assumption that the vehicle is on a flat road surface. Therefore, the
display may appear as follows.
• Three-dimensional objects may appear to have fallen over, and be long and thin or bigger than they actually are
• Three-dimensional objects at a point higher than the surface of the road may appear further away than they actually are, or may not appear
• Tall objects may appear to emerge from the image processing seams
●Inconsistencies in the bright ness of images from each camera may occur depending on
lighting conditions.
●The displayed image may not be aligned when the tilt or height of the vehicle changed
due to the number of passengers, cargo we ight or remaining quantity of gasoline.
●The displayed image may not be aligned when the vehicle is in other than “N” (normal)
height mode. ( P. 2 9 7 )
●Images and guide lines may not be properly displayed when the doors are not com-
pletely closed.
●The relative distances between the vehicle ic on and road surface or an obstacle dis-
played in the panoramic view may differ from the actual state.
●If an illuminated license plate is used, it may appear on the screen.
●The black area around the vehicle icon is an area that is not appear in the camera.
Check these areas directly.
■Wide front view display range
●Certain areas at the front of the vehicle have a different sense of distance, and are
masked in black so that they do not appear on the screen.
●There are limits to the range displayed on the screen. Objects at either corner of the
bumper or directly below the bumper are not displayed.
●The perceived distance in images displayed on the screen differs from the actual dis-
tance.
■Images displayed on the screen
Cameras of the Multi-terrain Monitor system use special lenses. The distance of the
image that appears on the screen differs from the actual distance.
●The circled areas shown in the illustration may
be difficult to see, as these are points where
images are combined.

●When the ground behind the vehicle slopes down sharply
The distance guide lines are displayed further away than the actual dis-
tance. Therefore, obstacles on a downward slope appear closer than the
actually are. In the same way, the actual course of the vehicle will differ from
the course indicated by the guide lines.
●When the vehicle is tilted
When the vehicle is tilted due to the number of passengers or weight of the
load, actual distances and vehicle course will differ.

■Differences between the panoramic vi
ew display and actual three-dimen-
sional objects
Be aware of the following points when three-dimensional objects higher than
the surface of the road (such as a vehicle bumper) are nearby.
●Panoramic view display
In the panoramic view, the system processes and displays images under the
assumption that the vehicle is on a flat road surface. Therefore, the position
of three-dimensional objects higher than the road surface (such as a vehi-
cle bumper) cannot be determined. Even if it seems that a collision will not
occur according to the screen, there may not actually be any extra space
between the vehicle and an obstacle higher than the road surface, resulting
in a collision. In these cases, conf irm the safety of your surroundings
directly.

■Intuitive parking assist pop-up display
When the intuitive parking assist pop-up disp lay is red, park the vehicle and make sure
to confirm the safety of your surroundings.
Failure to do so may lead to an unexpected accident.

●Projected course lines
Projected course lines are displayed under the assumption that the vehicle
is on a flat road surface. Therefore, the position of three-dimensional
objects higher than the road surface (such as a vehicle bumper) cannot be
determined. Even if it seems that an obstacle is outside of the projected
course lines and a collision will not occur according to the screen, an
obstacle may actually be in the vehicle course, resulting in a collision.
Projected course lines Three-dimensional objects in high positions (such as walls with protrusions
or the loading areas of trucks) may not be displayed on the screen. Con-
firm the safety of your surroundings directly.
