.Always keep the mirror and camera area
of the rear window clean.
. Clean the mirror and the camera lens
with a dry soft cloth.
. When cleaning the camera area of the
rear window, use a soft cloth dampened
with water and a neutral detergent. Then
dry it with a dry soft cloth.
. If the image on the Smart Rearview
Mirror display screen is still unclear even
after cleaning the camera area of the
rear window, an oil film may be adhering
to the rear window glass. Clean the rear
window glass with an oil film remover.
. Never use alcohol, benzine, thinner, or
any similar material to clean the mirror or

parent material) on the camera area of
the rear window.OUTSIDE MIRRORS

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for the proper use of the
Around View
®Monitor system could
result in serious injury or death.
. The Around View
®Monitor is a
convenience feature and is not a
substitute for proper vehicle opera-
tion because it has areas where
objects cannot be viewed. The four
corners of the vehicle in particular,
are areas where objects do not al-
ways 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 out the windows and
check mirrors to be sure that it is safe
to move.
. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.

Available views
WARNING
. The distance guide lines and the
vehicle width lines should be used as
a reference only when the vehicle is
on a paved, level surface. The appar-
ent 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,
fuel level, vehicle position, road con-
dition and road grade.
. If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course lines
and the bird’s-eye view may be dis-
played incorrectly. .
When driving the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are
further than they appear. When
driving the vehicle down a hill, objects
viewed in the monitor are closer than
they appear.
. Objects in the monitor will appear
visually opposite compared to when
viewed in the rear view and outside
mirrors.
. Use the mirrors or actually look to
properly judge distances to other
objects.
. The distance between objects viewed
in the rear view differs from actual
distance because a wide-angle lens is
used.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predictive course line and the
actual course line.
. The vehicle width and predictive
course lines are wider than the actual
width and course.
. The displayed lines on the rear view
will appear slightly off to the right
because the rear view camera is not
installed in the rear center of the
vehicle.SAA1840

The driver can check the approximate direc-
tion and angle of the tire on the display by
tire icon
when driving the vehicle forward
or backward.
Predictive course lines (
and) indicate
the predictive course when operating 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.
When the monitor displays the front view
and the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or less from the straight-ahead
position, the two green predictive course
lines
are shown in front of the vehicle.
When the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or more, one green predictive course
line
is shown in front of the vehicle and the
other green predictive course lineis shown
at side of the vehicle.
When the monitor displays the rear view, the
predictive course lines are shown at back of
the vehicle.
WARNING
. Objects in the bird’s-eye view will
appear further than the actual dis-
tance.
. 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 posi-
tion 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.
. Tire angle display does not indicate
the actual tire angle.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the Mov-
ing Object Detection system could result
in serious injury or death.
.The MOD system is not a substitute
for proper vehicle operation and is
not designed to prevent contact with
the objects surrounding the vehicle.
When maneuvering, always use the
outside mirror and rearview mirror
and turn and check the surrounding
to ensure it is safe to maneuver.
. The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 MPH (10 km/h). It is reacti-
vated at lower speeds.
. The MOD system is not designed to
detect the surrounding stationary
objects.
The Moving Object Detection (MOD) system
can inform the driver of the moving objects
surrounding the vehicle when driving out of
garages, maneuvering into parking lots and
in other such instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the
image shown on the display.
MOD SYSTEM OPERATION
The MOD system will turn on automatically
under the following conditions:
. When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
. When vehicle speed decreases below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h).
