■When any part of the vehi-
cle sags
When any part of the vehicle
sags due to the number of pas-
sengers or the distribution of the
load, there is a margin of error
between the guide lines on the
screen and the actual dis-
tance/course on the road.
A margin of error When there are three-dimen-
sional objects (such as vehicle
bumpers, etc.) nearby in posi-
tions higher than the surface of
the road, take extra care when
using the following.
Since the panoramic view pro-
cess and display images based
on flat road surfaces, it cannot
depict the position of three-
dimension objects (such as
vehicle bumpers, etc.) that are
in positions higher than the sur-
face of the road. For example,
even though it appears that
there is space between the
bumpers of the two vehicles in
the illustration below and they
are not likely to collide, in reality,
a collision is about to occur.

dimensional objects
WARNING
●When a sensor indicator on the
intuitive parking assist display
illuminates in red or a buzzer
sounds continuously, be sure to
check the area around the vehi-
cle immediately and do not pro-
ceed any further until safety has
been ensured, otherwise an
unexpected accident may occur.

Since the projected course
lines is displayed for a flat
road surface, it can not depict
the position of three-dimen-
sional objects (such as vehi-
cle bumpers, etc.) that are in
positions higher than the sur-
face of the road. Even if the
bumpers of the vehicle is on
the outside of the projected
course lines in the image, in
reality, the vehicles are on a
collision course. Projected course lines

(such as the overhang of a
wall or loading platform of a

conditions around the
driver in a variety of situa-
tions, such as when judging
conditions during off-road
driving or checking for
obstacles when parking.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions
to avoid an accident that could
result in death or serious injuries.
■When using the Multi-terrain
Monitor system
●Never rely solely on the Multi-

unequipped vehicles, drive
carefully while directly confirm-
ing the safety o f your surround-
ings and the area to the rear of
the vehicle. Take particular care
to avoid parked cars and other
obstacles.
●Due to the characteristics of the
camera lens, the actual position
and distance of people and
other obstacles will differ from
those shown on the Multi-terrain
Monitor screen. Directly con-
firm the safety of your surround-
ings before driving.
●Do not drive while only looking
at the screen. When driving,
make sure to directly confirm
the safety of your surroundings,
such as by visually checking the
area and using the vehicle’s
mirrors.
●In low temperatures, the screen
may darken or the images may
become faint. Images of moving
objects in particular may distort
or disappear from the screen.
Therefore, make sure to drive
carefully while directly visually
confirming the safety of your
surroundings.
