.Underneath the bumper and the
corner areas of the bumper can-
not be viewed on the RearView
Monitor because of its monitoring
range limitation. The system will
not show small objects below the
bumper, and may not show ob-
jects close to the bumper or on
the ground.
. Objects viewed in the RearView
Monitor differ from actual dis-
tance 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 re-
ference. The lines are highly af-
fected by the number of
occupants, fuel level, vehicle po-
sition, road conditions and road
grade.
. Make sure that the liftgate is
securely closed when backing up.
. Do not put anything on the rear-
view camera. The rearview cam-
era is installed 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 con-
densation on the lens, a malfunc-
tion, fire or an electric shock.
. Do not strike the camera. It is a
precision instrument. Otherwise,
it may malfunction or cause da-
mage resulting in a fire or an
electric shock.
The following are operating limitations
and do not represent a system malfunc-
tion:
. When the temperature is extremely
high or low, the screen may not clearly
display objects.
. When strong light directly shines on
the camera, objects may not be dis-
played 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 fluores-
cent 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
between views.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on
the camera, the RearView Monitor
may not display objects 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 clean-
ing agent, then wipe with a dry cloth.

To display the multiple views, the Intelli-
gent Around View® Monitor system uses
cameras
located in the front grille, on
the vehicle’s outside mirrors and one just
above the vehicle’s license plate.

MONITOR SYSTEM OPERATION
When the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position, push the CAMERA button on
the instrument panel or move the shift
lever to the R (Reverse) position to
operate the Intelligent Around View®
Monitor.
The screen displayed on the Intelligent
Around View® Monitor will automatically
return to the previous screen 3 minutes after the CAMERA button has been
pushed with the shift lever in a position
other than the R (Reverse) position.

WARNING
.
The distance guide lines and the
vehicle width guide 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 dis-
played objects.
. Use the displayed lines and the
bird’s-eye view as a reference.
The lines and the bird’s-eye view
are greatly affected by the num-
ber of occupants, fuel level, vehi-
cle position, road condition and
road grade.
. If the tires are replaced with
different sized tires, the predic-
tive course lines and the bird’s-
eye view may be displayed incor-
rectly.
. When driving the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are
Monitor, heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems4-11
4-12Monitor, heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems
farther 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 ap-
pear visually opposite compared
to when viewed in the rearview
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 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 cam-
era is not installed in the rear
center of the vehicle.

Predictive course lines
:
Indicate the predictive course when op-

displays the rear view, the predictive
course lines will be displayed on the
monitor if 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.
The front view will not be displayed when
the vehicle speed is above 6 MPH (10
km/h).

MONITOR SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for Intelligent Around View®
Monitor. Failure to operate the vehi-
cle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious
injury or death.
. Do not use the Intelligent Around
View® Monitor with the outside
mirrors in the stored position,
and make sure that the liftgate
is securely closed when operating
the vehicle using the Intelligent
Around View® Monitor.
. The apparent distance between
objects viewed on the Intelligent

from the actual distance.
. The cameras are installed above
the front grille, the outside mir-
rors and above the rear license
plate. Do not put anything on the
cameras.
. When washing the vehicle with

WARNING
.Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions for proper use
of the Moving Object Detection system could result in serious
injury or death.
. The MOD system is not a substi-
tute for proper vehicle operation
and is not designed to prevent
contact with objects surrounding
the vehicle. When maneuvering, always use the outside mirror
and rearview mirror and turn
and check the surroundings to
ensure it is safe to maneuver.
. The system is deactivated at
speeds above 5 MPH (8 km/h). It
is reactivated at lower speeds.
. The MOD system is not designed
to detect the surrounding sta-
tionary objects.
The MOD system can inform the driver of
moving objects near the vehicle when
driving out of garages, maneuvering in
parking lots and in other such instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects
by using image processing technology on
the image shown in the display.
MOD SYSTEM OPERATION
The MOD system will turn on automati-
cally under the following conditions:
. When the shift lever is in the R
(Reverse) position.
. When the CAMERA button is pushed
to activate the Intelligent Around
View® Monitor system on the display.
. When vehicle speed decreases below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h).

MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for MOD. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in
serious injury or death.
. Excessive noise (for example,
audio system volume or open
vehicle window) will interfere
with the chime sound, and it may not be heard.
. The MOD system performance
will be limited according to en-
vironmental conditions and sur-
rounding objects such as:
— When there is low contrast
between background and the
moving objects.
— When there is blinking source of light.
— When strong light such as another vehicle’s headlight or
sunlight is present.
— When camera orientation is not in its usual position, such
as when the outside mirror is
folded.
— When there is dirt, water drops or snow on the camera lens.
— When the position of the mov- ing objects in the display is
not changed.
. The MOD system might detect
flowing water droplets on the
camera lens, white smoke from
the muffler, moving shadows, etc.
. The MOD system may not func-
tion properly depending on the
speed, direction, distance or

the air which helps defog the windshield.
The air recirculation mode automatically
turns off, allowing outside air to be drawn
into the passenger compartment to
further improve the defogging perfor-

whether the indicator light is on or off.
NOTE:
. The air conditioner system should
be operated for approximately 10
minutes at least once a month. This
helps prevent damage to the air
conditioner system due to the lack
of lubrication.
. A visible mist may be seen coming
from the ventilators in hot, humid
conditions as the air is cooled ra-
pidly. This does not indicate a mal-
function.
. If the engine coolant temperature
becomes too high, the air recircula-
tion mode will be activated and the
