Rear view monitor system∗
The rear view monitor system will
activate when the shift lever is in
R.
If you move the lever out of R, the
rear view monitor system will be
deactivated.
When the shift lever is shifted to
the R position and any mode but-
ton (such as “MENU”/“APPS”) is
pressed, the rear view monitor sys-
tem is canceled, and the screen is
switched to the mode of the button
that was pressed.
∗: If equipped
The rear view monitor system assists the driver by displaying an
image of the view behind the vehicle and fixation guide lines
while backing up, for example while parking.
The screen illustrations used in this text are intended as examples,
and may differ from the image that is actually displayed on the
screen.

■Area displayed on screen
The rear view monitor system
displays an image of the view
from the bumper of the rear
area of the vehicle.
The image on the rear view
monitor system can be
adjusted: refer to P. 401.
• The area displayed on the
screen may vary according to
vehicle orientation conditions.
• Objects which are close to either corner of the bumper or under
the bumper cannot be dis-
played.
• The camera uses a special lens.
The distance of the image that
appears on the screen differs
from the actual distance.
• Items which are located higher than the camera may not be dis-
played on the monitor.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a backlit license plate, it may interfere with the display.

●When any part of the vehicle sags
When any part of the vehicle
sags due to the number of
passengers or the distribu-
tion of the load, there is a
margin of error between the
fixation guide lines on the
screen and the actual dis-
tance/course on the road.
■When approaching thre e-dimensional objects
The distance guide lines are displayed according to flat surfaced
objects (such as the road). It is not possible to determine the posi-
tion of three-dimensional objects (such as vehicles) using the dis-
tance guide lines. When approaching a three-dimensional object
that extends outward (such as the flatbed of a truck), be careful of
the following.
● Vehicle width guide lines
Visually check the surround-
ings and the area behind the
vehicle. In the case shown in
the illustration , the truck
appears to be outside of the
vehicle width guide lines and
the vehicle does not look as if
it hits the truck. However, the
rear body of the truck may
actually cross over the vehi-
cle width guide lines. In real-
ity if you back up as guided
by the vehicle width guide
lines, the vehicle may hit the
truck.

WARNING
■When using the rear view monitor system
The rear view monitor system is a supplemental device intended to assist
the driver when backing up. When backing up, be sure to check visually
behind and all around the vehicle before proceeding.
Observe the following precautions to avoid an accident that could result in
death or serious injuries.
● Never depend on the rear view monitor system entirely when backing up.
The image and the position of the guide lines displayed on the screen may
differ from the actual state.
Use caution, just as you would when backing up any vehicle.
● Be sure to back up slowly, depressing the brake pedal to control vehicle
speed.
● The instructions given are only guide lines.
When and how much to turn the steering wheel will vary according to traf-
fic conditions, road surface conditions, vehicle condition, etc. when park-
ing. It is necessary to be fully aware of this before using the rear view
monitor system.
● When parking, be sure to check that the parking space will accommodate
your vehicle before maneuvering into it.
● Do not use the rear view monitor system in the following cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or in snow
• When using tire chains or the compact spare tire (if equipped)
• When the back door is not closed completely
• On roads that are not flat or straight, such as curves or slopes.
● In low temperatures, the screen may darken or the image may become
faint. The image could distort when the vehicle is moving, or you may
become unable to see the image on the screen. Be sure to check direct
visually and with the mirrors all around the vehicle before proceeding.
● If the tire sizes are changed, the position of the fixation guide lines dis-
played on the screen may change.
● The camera uses a special lens. The distances between objects and
pedestrians that appear in the image displayed on the screen will differ
from the actual distances. ( →P. 289)
