REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for RearView Monitor. Failure to oper-
ate the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in serious
injury or death.
.The system cannot completely elim-
inate blind spots and may not show
every object.
. Underneath the bumper and the
corner areas of the bumper cannot
be viewed on the RearView Monitor
because of its monitoring range lim-
itation. The system will not show
small objects below the bumper, and
may not show objects close to the
bumper or on the ground.
. Objects viewed in the RearView
Monitor differ from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens 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 reference.
The lines are highly affected by the
number of occupants, fuel level, ve-
hicle position, road conditions and
road grade.
. Make sure that the trunk lid is
securely closed when backing up.
. Do not put anything on the rearview
camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled 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 condensation on the
lens, a malfunction, fire or an electric
shock.
. Do not strike the camera. It is a
precision instrument. Otherwise, it
may malfunction or cause damage
resulting in a fire or an electric shock.
The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:
. 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 fluorescent
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.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the
camera, the RearView Monitor may not
display object clearly. Clean the camera.
. Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe
off any wax with a clean cloth dampened
with a diluted mild cleaning agent, then
wipe with a dry cloth.

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.

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:
. 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 view of the vehicle from
above.
. Front-side view
The view around and ahead of the front
passenger’s side wheel.
. Front-wide view
An approximately 180-degree view of the front of the vehicle.
WAE0196X
To display the multiple views, the Around
View®Monitor system uses cameraslocated in the front grill, on the vehicle’s
outside mirrors and one just above the
vehicle’s license plate.
AROUND VIEW®MONITOR SYS-
TEM OPERATION
With the ignition switch in the “ON” position,
move the shift lever to the “R” (Reverse)
position or push the CAMERA button to
display the Around View
®Monitor on the
upper display.

Available views
WARNING
.The distance guide line and the
vehicle width line should be used as
a reference only when the vehicle is
on a paved, level surface. The dis-
tance viewed on the monitor is for
reference only and 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
farther than they appear. When driv-
ing 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 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 lines 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 rearview camera is not
installed in the rear center of the
vehicle.

vehicle. Note that the distance between
objects viewed in the bird’s-eye view differs
from the actual distance.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
are indicated in black.
After the ignition switch is placed in the
"ON" position, the unviewable area
is
highlighted in yellow for a few seconds after
the bird’s-eye view is displayed.

Predictive course lines (and) indicate the
predictive course when operating the vehi-
cle. The predictive course lines (
and) will
