WARNING
∙ Failure to follow the warnings and in-structions for the proper use of the
Intelligent Around View Monitor sys-
tem could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ The Intelligent Around View Monitor is a convenience feature and is not a
substitute for proper vehicle opera-
tion because it has areas where ob-
jects cannot be viewed. The four cor-
ners 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 surround-
ings to be sure that it is safe to move
before operating the vehicle. Always
operate the vehicle slowly.
∙ The driver is always responsible for safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the front of
the camera. The Intelligent Around View Monitor sys-
tem is designed 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 for-
mat. Not all views are available at all times.
Available views:
∙ Front View An approximately 150–degree view of
the front of the vehicle.
∙ Rear View An approximately 150–degree view of
the rear of the vehicle.
∙ Bird’s-Eye View The surrounding views of the vehicle
from above.
∙ Front-Side View The view around and ahead of the front
passenger’s side wheel.
∙ Rear-Wide View An approximately 180–degree view of
the rear of the vehicle. To display the multiple views, the Intelligent
Around View Monitor system uses cam-
eras located in the front grille, on the vehi-
cle’s outside mirrors and one on the tail-
gate
1.

When the camera is first activated with the
bird’s-eye view in the display, a red icon (if so
equipped) will flash on the screen. This in-
dicates that the sonar system (if so
equipped) is activated. For additional infor-
mation on the front and rear sonar system
(if so equipped), refer to “Front and rear so-
nar system” in the “Starting and driving”
section of this manual.
The screen displayed on the Intelligent
Around View Monitor will automatically re-
turn to the previous screen 3 minutes af ter
the CAMERA button has been pressed with
the shif t lever in a position other than the R
(Reverse) position.
Available views
WARNING
∙ The distance guide lines and the ve-hicle width lines should be used as a
reference only when the vehicle is on a
paved, level surface. The apparent
distance viewed on the monitor may
be different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed
objects. ∙ Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-
eye view as a reference. The lines and
the bird’s-eye view are greatly af-
fected by the number of occupants,
cargo, fuel level, vehicle position, road
condition and road grade.
∙ If the tires are replaced with different sized tires, the predicted course lines
and the bird’s-eye view may be dis-
played incorrectly.
∙ When driving the vehicle up a hill, ob- jects viewed in the monitor are fur-
ther than they appear. When driving
the vehicle down a hill, objects viewed
in the monitor are closer than they
appear.
∙ Objects in the rear view will appear visually opposite compared to when
viewed in the monitor and outside
mirrors.
∙ Use the mirrors or actually look to properly judge distances to other
objects.
∙ On a snow-covered or slippery road, there may be a difference between
the predicted course lines and the ac-
tual course line. ∙ The vehicle width and predicted
course lines are wider than the actual
width and course.
∙ The displayed lines will appear slightly off to the right, because the
rearview camera is not installed in the
rear center of the vehicle.

Indicate the approximate vehicle width
when backing up.
Predicted course lines
6
Indicate the predicted course when oper-
ating the vehicle. The predicted course
lines will be displayed on the monitor when
the steering wheel is turned. The predicted
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. Center guide lines
7
Indicates the vehicle’s center to improve
trailer hitching guidance.
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 lef t
predicted course lines
6are 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 predicted course
to a parking space.
The vehicle icon
1shows the position of
the vehicle. Note that the apparent dis-
tance between objects viewed in the bird’s-
eye view may differ somewhat from the
actual distance to the vehicle.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
2are indicated in black. The non-viewable area
2is highlighted in
yellow for several seconds af ter the bird’s-
eye view is displayed. It will be shown only
the first time af ter the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.
WARNING
∙ Objects in the bird’s-eye view will ap- pear further than the actual distance.
∙ 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 of 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

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTED
AND ACTUAL DISTANCES
The displayed guidelines and their loca-
tions on the ground are for approximate
reference only. Objects on uphill or downhill
surfaces or projecting objects will be actu-
ally 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
further than it appears on the monitor.
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 farther than the actual
distance. Note that any object on the hill is
closer than it appears on the monitor.

HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED
COURSE LINES
WARNING
∙ If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course lines
may be displayed incorrectly.
∙ On a snow-covered or slippery road, there may be a difference between
the predicted course line and the ac-
tual course line.
∙ If the battery is disconnected or be- comes discharged, the predicted
course lines may be displayed incor-
rectly. If this occurs, please perform
the following procedures:
– Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock while the engine is running.
– Drive the vehicle on a straight road for more than 5 minutes.
∙ When the steering wheel is turned with the ignition switch in the ACC po-
sition, the predicted course lines may
be displayed incorrectly.
