distance perspective could lead to an accident. Note the follow ing conditions that may cause
a variance in distance perspective.
When the vehicle is tilted due to the weight of passengers and load
When the vehicle rear is lowered, the object displayed on the screen appears farther than the
actual distance.

When reversing near a thr ee-dimensional object
When reversing near an overhanging object, the vehicle may hit the object even if the
anticipated course line does not c ontact the object on the screen. The position of the object
displayed on the screen is different from the actual position b ecause the anticipated course
lines on the screen are displayed based on a horizontal road surface. When backing up near
an overhanging object, confirm the rear and surrounding conditi ons directly with your eyes.
