Bird’s eye-view mode

CAUTION The bird’s eye-view is a composite image from images captured by the “Front-viewcamera”, “Side-view cameras (right andleft)” and “Rear-view camera”. As a result, objects may appear to
be farther away than
they actually are. Also, an object may appearto be in a direction a
nd/or location different
from actual. In addition, blind spots exist in proximity of the vehicle.Even if the screen indicates that there is a space between your ve
hicle and an object,
there may actually be less or no space.Always check visually
behind and all around
your vehicle. The view at a section near each corner on the Bird's eye-view is combined from the edge of the view captured by each camera. Asresult, an object indica
ted in the section may
be unclear, and it may
disappear/reappear on
the screen.NOTE
 In the Bird’s eye-view mode, since the views captured by the four cameras, “Front-viewcamera”, “Side-view cameras (right and left)” and “Rear-view camera” are processed based on a level flat road surface, an imagemay be displayed as follows: • An object appears to
have fallen down and

• Only right or left exte
rior light of a vehicle
in front or oncoming
vehicle is illuminat-
ing. • A vehicle in front or
oncoming vehicle is a
motorcycle. • Road conditions (gradient, bends and road surface). • The number of occupants and luggage load.  The automatic high beam system recognises environmental conditi
ons by sensing a light
source ahead of your vehicle. Therefore, youmay feel like someth
ing is not quite right
when the headlight beams are switched auto- matically.  The system may not de
tect a light vehicle
such as a bicycle.  The system may not detect an ambient brightness precisely. Th
is causes the traffic
to be dazzled by high beam or the low beam to be maintained. In such cases, you should switch the headli
ght beams manually.
• In bad weather (heavy
rain, fog, snow or
sandstorm). • The windshield is dirty or fogged up. • The windshield is cracked or broken. • The sensor is deformed or dirty.• A light, which is similar to the headlights or tail lights, is shining around your vehicle. • A vehicle in front
or oncoming vehicle is
driven without lights,
the exterior lights are
dirty or discoloured, or the direction of the headlight beams is ad
justed improperly.
NOTE
• It becomes dark and bright suddenly and continuously around your vehicle. • Your vehicle is driv
en on uneven surfaces.
• Your vehicle is driven on a winding road.• A reflective object su
ch as a noticeboard or
a mirror reflects a light ahead of your vehi-cle. • When lights of the vehi
cle in front or head-
lights of an oncoming ve
hicle blend into the
other lights. • The rear end of a vehicle in front (such as a container truck) re
flect a strong light.
• Your vehicle's headligh
t is broken or dirty.
• Your vehicle is inclined due to a flat tire or towing. • The warning display appears. (Refer to “System problem warning” on page 5-205.)
 Observe the precautions below to maintain good usage conditions: • Do not attempt to di
sassemble the sensor.
• Do not affix a sticker or label on the wind- shield near the sensor. • Avoid overload.• Do not modify your vehicle. • When the windshield is replaced, use the Mitsubishi Motors
