Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the bumper.. Red line
: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
. Yellow line
: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
. Green line
: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
. Green line
: approx. 10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up.
Predictive course lines:
Indicate the predictive course when backing
up. The predictive course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when the shift
lever is in the “R” (Reverse) position and the
steering-wheel is turned. The predictive
course lines will move depending on how
much the steering-wheel is turned and will
not be displayed while the steering-wheel is
in the neutral position.
The vehicle width guide lines and the width
of the predictive course lines are wider than
the actual width and course.
HOW TO PARK WITH PREDIC-
TIVE COURSE LINES
WARNING
. If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course line
may not be displayed correctly.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predictive course line and the
actual course line.
. The displayed lines will appear slightly
off to the right because the rearview
camera is not installed in the rear
center of the vehicle.
The vehicle width and predictive course lines
are wider than the actual width and course.
1. Visually check that the parking space is safe before parking your vehicle.
2. The rear view of the vehicle
is
displayed as illustrated when the shift
lever is shifted to the “R” (Reverse)
position.

3. Slowly back up the vehicle adjusting thesteering-wheel so that the predictive
course lines
enter the parking space.
4. Maneuver the steering wheel to make the vehicle width guide lines
parallel to
the parking spacewhile referring to
the predictive course lines. 5. When the vehicle is parked in the space
completely, move the shift lever to the P
(Park) position and apply the parking
brake.
Difference between predictive and
actual distances
The displayed guidelines 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 guidelines
(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
farther than it appears on the monitor.

AROUND VIEW® MONITOR (if
so equipped)

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for the proper use of the
Around View® Monitor system could
result in serious injury or death.. The Around View® Monitor is a con-
venience feature and is not a sub- stitute for proper vehicle operation
because it has areas where objects
cannot be viewed. The four corners of
the vehicle in particular, are areas
where objects do not always appear
in the bird’s-eye, front, or rear views.
Always check your surroundings to be
sure that it is safe to move before
operating the vehicle. Always operate
the vehicle slowly. Always look outthe windows and check mirrors to be
sure that it is safe to move.
. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other man-
euvers.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the lens when cleaning dirt
or snow from the front of the camera.
The Around View® Monitor system is de-
signed as an aid to the driver in situations
such as slot parking or parallel parking.
The monitor displays various views of the
position of the vehicle in a split screen
format. All views are not available at all
times.
Available views: . Bird’s-Eye View

vehicle width and distances to objects with
reference to the vehicle body line
, are
displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the vehicle body.
. Red line

Vehicle width guide lines
:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up. Predictive course lines
:
Indicate the predictive course when operat-
ing the vehicle. The predictive course lines
will be displayed on the monitor when the
steering wheel is turned. The predictive
course lines will move depending on how
much the steering wheel is turned and will
not be displayed while the steering wheel is
in the straight ahead position.
The front view will not be displayed when
the vehicle speed is above 6 MPH (10 km/h).
NOTE:
When the monitor displays the front view
and the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or less from the straight ahead
position, both the right and left predictive
course lines
are displayed. When the
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 predictive course to
a parking space.
The vehicle icon
shows the position of the
vehicle. Note that the size of the vehicle icon
on the bird’s-eye view may differ somewhat
from the actual distance to the vehicle.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
are indicated in black.
The non-viewable area
is highlighted in
yellow for several seconds after the bird’s-
eye view is displayed. It will be shown only

The misalignment will increase as the
line proceeds away from the vehicle.
. Tire angle display does not indicate
the actual tire angle
