Always confirm the safety of the area
around the vehicle with the mirrors and
directly with your eyes when driving:
The 360°View Monitor is an auxiliary device
which assists the driver in checking the
safety of the area around the vehicle.
The shooting range of the cameras and
detection range of the sensors are limited.
For example, the areas in black at the front
and rear of the vehicle image and the
seams where each of the camera images
merge are blind spots where an obstruction
may not be visible. In addition, the
extended vehicle width lines and projected
vehicle path lines are only to be used as
references, and the images on the screen
may differ from the actual conditions.
CAUTION
 Do not use the 360°View Monitor under
any of the following conditions.
 Icy or snow-covered roads.
 Tire chains or a te mporary spare tire is
installed.
 The front doors or the rear doors is not
fully closed.
 The vehicle is on a road incline.
 The door mirrors are retracted.
 Do not hit the front/rear camera, front/
rear bumper, and door mirrors forcefully.
The camera position or installation angle
