REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
RearView Monitor. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death.
●
The system cannot completely elimi-
nate blind spots and may not show ev-
ery object.
● Underneath the bumper and the corner
areas of the bumper cannot be viewed
on the RearView Monitor because of its
monitoring range limitation. The system
will not show small objects below the
bumper, and may not show objects
close to the bumper or on the ground.
● Objects viewed in the RearView Moni-
tor differ from actual distance because
a wide-angle lens is used. ●
Objects in the RearView Monitor will
appear visually opposite compared to
when viewed in the rearview and out-
side mirrors.
● Use the displayed lines as a reference.
The lines are highly affected by the
number of occupants, fuel level, vehicle
position, road conditions and road
grade.
● Make sure that the liftgate is securely
closed when backing up.
● Do not put anything on the rearview
camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled above the license plate.
● When washing the vehicle with high
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock.
● Do not strike the camera. It is a preci-
sion instrument. Otherwise, it may mal-
function or cause damage resulting in a
fire or an electric shock.

WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
Around View® Monitor. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these sys-
tem limitations could result in serious in-
jury or death.
●Do not use the Around View® Monitor
with the outside mirrors in the stored
position, and make sure that the liftgate
is securely closed when operating the
vehicle using the Around View®
Monitor.
● The apparent distance between objects
viewed on the Around View® Monitor
differs from the actual distance.
● The cameras are installed on the front
grille, the outside mirrors and above the
rear license plate. Do not put anything
on the vehicle that covers the cameras.
● When washing the vehicle with high
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the cameras. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, 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.
There are some areas where the system will not
show objects and the system does not warn of
moving objects. When in the front or 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
2of
the camera viewing areas will not appear in the
monitor.
The following are operating limitations and do not
represent a system malfunction:
● There may be a delay when switching be-
tween views.
● When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not display objects
clearly.
● When strong light directly shines on the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
● The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light.
● The colors of objects on the Around View®
Monitor may differ somewhat from the actual
color of objects. ●
Objects on the Around View® Monitor may
not be clear and the color of the object may
differ in a dark environment.
● There may be differences in sharpness be-
tween each camera view of the bird’s-eye
view.
● Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe off
any wax with a clean cloth that has been
dampened with a diluted mild cleaning
agent, then wipe with a dry cloth.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-25

●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 icon is not
displayed on the screen when in this view.
When the MOD system detects moving objects
near the vehicle, a yellow frame will be displayed
on the view where the objects are detected. While the MOD system continues to detect mov-
ing objects, the yellow frame continues to be
displayed.
In the bird’s-eye view, the yellow frame
1is
displayed on each camera image (front, rear,
right, left) depending on where moving objects
are detected.
The yellow frame
1is displayed on each view in
the front view and rear view modes.
A blue MOD icon
2is displayed in the view
where the MOD system is operative. A gray MOD
icon is displayed in the view where the MOD
