position, both the right and left predictive
course lines

steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or
more, a line is displayed only on the
opposite side of the turn.

Bird’s-eye view:
The bird’s-eye view shows the overhead view of
the vehicle which helps confirm the vehicle
position and the predicted course to a parking
space.
The vehicle icon
*1shows the position of the
vehicle. Note that the distance between objects
viewed in the bird’s-eye view differs from the
actual distance.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
*2are
indicated in black.
After the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the non-viewable area
*2is high-
lighted in yellow for 3 seconds after the bird’s- eye view is displayed.
In addition, the non-viewable corners are dis-
played in red (blink for the first 3 seconds)
*3
to remind the drivers to be cautious.
WARNING
.
Objects in the bird’s-eye view will
appear further than the actual dis-
tance because the bird’s-eye view is
a pseudo view that is processed by
combining the views from the cam-
eras on the outside mirrors, the
front and the rear of the vehicle.
. Tall objects, such as a curb or
vehicle, may be misaligned or not
displayed at the seam of the views.
. Objects that are above the camera
cannot be displayed.
. The view for the bird’s-eye view may
be misaligned when the camera
position alters.
. A line on the ground may be mis-
aligned and is not seen as being
straight at the seam of the views.
The misalignment will increase as
the line proceeds away from the
vehicle.

Front-side view:
Guiding lines:
Guiding lines that indicate the width and the
front end of the vehicle are displayed on the
monitor.
The front-of-vehicle line
*1shows the front part
of the vehicle.
The side-of-vehicle line
*2shows the vehicle
width including the outside mirrors.
The extensions
*3of both the front*1and
side
*2lines are shown with a green dotted
line.
CAUTION
The turn signal light may look like the
side-of-vehicle line. This is not a mal-
function.
Difference between predictive and actual
distances
The displayed guide lines and their locations on
the ground are for approximate reference only.
Objects on uphill or downhill surfaces or
projecting objects will be actually located at
distances different from those displayed in the
monitor relative to the guide lines (refer to
illustrations) . When in doubt, turn around and
view the objects as you are backing up, or park
and exit the vehicle to view the positioning of
objects behind the vehicle.

Backing up on a steep uphill:
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width guide
lines are shown closer than the actual distance.
Note that any object on the hill is further than it
appears on the monitor.
JVH1276X
Backing up on a steep downhill:
When backing up the vehicle down a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width guide
lines are shown further than the actual distance.
Note that any object on the hill is closer than it
appears on the monitor.

How to park with predictive course lines
WARNING
.
If the tires are replaced with differ-
ent sized tires, the predictive course
lines may be displayed incorrectly.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predictive course line and the
actual course line.

stored position, and make sure that
the liftgate is securely closed when
operating the vehicle using the
Around View
ŠMonitor.
. The apparent distance between ob-
jects viewed on the Around View
Š
Monitor differs from the actual dis-
tance.
. The cameras are installed on the
front grille, the outside mirrors and

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 the 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
*3
of the camera viewing areas will not appear in the monitor
*2.
The following are operating limitations and do
not represent a system malfunction:
. There may be a delay when switching
between views.
. When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not display objects
clearly.

Š
Monitor may differ somewhat from the actual
color of objects.
. Objects on the monitor may not be clear and
the color of the object may differ in a dark
environment.
. There may be differences in sharpness
between each camera view of the bird’s-
eye view.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the
camera, the Around View
ŠMonitor may not
display objects clearly. Clean the camera.
. Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe off
any wax with a clean cloth that has been
