■Differences between the rear view or wide rear view and actual roads
The guide lines on the screen are intended for flat surfaces (such as the road).
Be aware of the following points when three-dimensional objects with protru-
sions (obstacles such as the cargo bed of a truck) are nearby.
●Projected course lines
Guide lines are displayed in reference to a level road surface and cannot
be used to determine the location of
three-dimensional objects. Confirm
the safety of your surroundings directly. Even if it seems that the cargo bed
of a truck is outside the projected co urse lines and a collision will not occur
according to the screen, it may actually be in the vehicle course, resulting in
a collision.

• If the temperature changes rapidly, such as when hot water is poured on the vehi- cle in cold weather, the system may not operate normally.
• When washing the vehicle, do not apply intensive bursts of water to the camera or
camera area. Doing so may result in the camera malfunctioning.
• When the camera is used under fluorescen t lights, sodium light or mercury light
etc., the lights and the illuminate d areas may appear to flicker.

■Cautions regarding the use of the function
The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, taking care to
observe your surroundings.
The RCTA function is only a supplementary fu nction which alerts the driver that a vehi-
cle is approaching from the right or left at the rear of the vehicle. As the RCTA function
may not function correctly under certain conditions, the driver’s own visual confirma-
tion of safety is necessary. Over reliance on this function may lead to an accident
resulting death or serious injury.
