and gently tap it with a dry shop cloth to
dry. Be careful not to allow the brake
cleaner to splatter on rubber parts, bum-

is used.
. Objects in the RearView Monitor
will appear visually opposite
compared to when viewed in the
rearview and outside mirrors.
. Use the displayed lines as a re-
ference. The lines are highly af-
fected by the number of
occupants, fuel level, vehicle po-
sition, road conditions and road
grade.
. Make sure that the trunk lid is
securely closed when backing up.
. Do not put anything on the rear-
view camera. The rearview cam-
era is installed above the license
plate.
. When washing the vehicle with
high-pressure water, be sure not
to spray it around the camera.
Otherwise, water may enter the
camera unit causing water con-
densation on the lens, a malfunc-
tion, fire or an electric shock.
. Do not strike the camera. It is a
precision instrument. Otherwise,
it may malfunction or cause da-
mage resulting in a fire or an
electric shock. The following are operating limitations
and do not represent a system malfunc-
tion:
.
When the temperature is extremely
high or low, the screen may not clearly
display objects.
. When strong light is directly coming
on the camera, objects may not be
displayed clearly.
. Vertical lines may be seen in objects
on the screen. This is due to strong
reflected light from the bumper.
. The screen may flicker under fluores-
cent light.
. The colors of objects on the RearView
Monitor may differ somewhat from
the actual color of objects.
. Objects on the monitor may not be
clear in a dark environment.
. There may be a delay when switching
to the RearView Monitor screen.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on
the camera, the RearView Monitor
may not display objects clearly. Clean
the camera.
. Do not use wax on the camera win-
dow. Wipe off any wax with a clean
cloth dampened with mild detergent
diluted with water.
