●Strong light shined on the rear view camera lens may develop white light
stripes around the light source. This is not a malfunction.
●Under fluorescent lighting, the display may flicker. However, this is not a
malfunction.
●It may be difficult to see the image from the rear view camera in the fol-
lowing situations. This is not a malfunction.
●When the vehicle is in a dark area (at night, in a tunnel, etc.).
●When the vehicle is in an extremely hot or cold place.
●When foreign matter (such as raindrops, snow, dirt, etc.) that disturbs the
view of the rear view camera is stuck to the lens of the rear view camera.
●When strong lights shine directly into the camera lens (in this case, verti-
cal lines may be displayed on the screen).
■Taking care of the rear view camera
●Do not clean the rear view camera with alcohol, benzine or paint thinner.
Otherwise, discoloration may occur. To remove contamination, wipe the
rear view camera with a cloth moistened with a diluted neutral detergent
and then wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
●When waxing the vehicle, be careful not to apply wax to the rear view
camera. If wax contacts the rear view camera, remove it with a clean
cloth moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.
●The camera lens has hard coating to help prevent scratches. However,
when washing the vehicle or cleaning the camera lens, be careful not to
scratch the camera lens. Do not use a washing brush directly on the
camera lens as the displayed image may be adversely affected.

When driving
●Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have
accumulated on the exterior lights, vehicle's roof, chassis,
around the tires or on the brakes.
●Remove any snow or mud from the bottom of your shoes
before getting in the vehicle.
●If a door is opened and closed when its side window is frozen,
the window safety device will operate and the side window
open/close function linked to door operation may not operate
correctly. If this occurs, perform the following after the ice has
melted.
Open the side window until it is approximately halfway open
with the door closed.
Fully close the window by pulling the switch up to the one-
touch closing position and continue holding the switch for 1
second or more after the window fully closes.
The window position is reset and the safety device operations will
be released.
■When driving the vehicle
Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep a safe distance between you
and the vehicle ahead, and drive at a reduced speed suitable to
road conditions.
■When parking the vehicle (in the winter time or in the cold
latitudes)
Park the vehicle and move the select lever to P (automatic trans-
mission) or shift lever to 1 or R (manual transmission) without
setting the parking brake. The parking brake may freeze up, pre-
venting it from being released. If necessary, block the wheels to
prevent inadvertent sliding or creeping.
