INTELLIGENT AROUND VIEW®
MONITOR SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the 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
Around View® Monitor differs
from the actual distance.
. The cameras are installed on the
front grille, the outside mirrors
and above the rear license plate.
Do not put anything on the vehi-
cle that covers the cameras.
. When washing the vehicle with
high pressure water, be sure not
to spray it around the cameras. 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 cameras. They
are precision instruments. Doing
so could cause a malfunction or
cause damage resulting in a fire
or an electric shock.

and do not represent a system malfunc-
tion:
.The screen displayed on the Intelligent
Around View® Monitor will automati-
cally return to the previous screen 3
minutes after the CAMERA button has
been pushed while the shift lever is in
a position other than the R (Reverse)
position.
. There may be a delay when switching
between views.

high or low, the screen may not
display objects clearly.
. When strong light is directly shines on
the camera, objects may not be dis-
played clearly.
. The screen may flicker under fluores-
cent light.
. The colors of objects on the Intelligent
Around View® Monitor may differ
somewhat from the actual color of
objects.
. Objects on the monitor may not be
clear and the color of the object may
differ in a dark environment.
. There may be differences in sharpness
between each camera view of the
bird’s-eye view. .
When activating the Intelligent Around
View® Monitor, the icons and the
messages may not be displayed for a
while.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on
the camera, the Intelligent Around
View® Monitor may not display objects
clearly. Clean the camera.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the
sonar function as outlined in this
section could result in serious injury
or death.
.The sonar is a convenience fea-
ture. It is not a substitute for
proper parking.
. This function is designed as an
aid to the driver in detecting large
stationary objects to help avoid
damaging the vehicle.
. The driver is always responsible
for safety during parking and
other maneuvers.
. Always look around and check
that it is safe to move before
parking.
. Read and understand the limita-
tions of the sonar as contained in
this section.
The sonar function helps to inform the
driver of large stationary objects around
the vehicle when parking by issuing an
audible and visual alert.

1. Touch screen display
2. Sonar indicator
3. MENU button
4. CAMERA buttonSONAR SYSTEM OPERATION
The system gives the tone for front
objects when the shift lever is in the D
(Drive) position and both front and rear
objects when the shift lever is in the R
(Reverse) position.
When the camera image is shown on the
CAMERA AIDING SONAR FUNCTION (models
with Intelligent Around View® Monitor)

touch screen display, the system shows
the sonar indicator regardless of the shift
lever position.
The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 MPH (10 km/h). It is reactivated
at lower speeds.
The colors of the sonar indicators and the
distance guide lines in the front, front-
wide, rear and rear-wide views indicate
different distances to the object.
When the objects are detected, the in-
dicator (green) appears and blinks and
the tone sounds intermittently. When the
vehicle moves closer to the object, the
color of the indicator turns yellow and the
rate of the blinking and the rate of the
tone increase. When the vehicle is very
close to the object, the indicator stops
blinking and turns red, and the tone
sounds continuously.
The intermittent tone will stop after 3
seconds when an object is detected by
only the sonar and the distance does not
change.
The tone will stop when the object is no
longer near the vehicle.

TURNING ON AND OFF THE SONAR
FUNCTION
When the “P” keyis touched, the
indicator lighton the key will turn off
and the sonar will turn off temporarily.
The Moving Object Detection (MOD), the
Rear Automatic Braking (RAB), and the
Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) sys-
tems will also be turned off at the same
time. See “Moving Object Detection
(MOD)” (P.4-29), “Rear Automatic Braking
(RAB)” (P.5-116) and “Intelligent Back-up
Intervention (I-BI)” (P.5-63).
When the “P” key
is touched again, the
indicator lightwill turn on and the
sonar will turn back on. The Moving Object Detection (MOD), the
Rear Automatic Braking (RAB), and the
Intelligent Back-up Intervention (I-BI) sys-
tems will also turn back on at the same
time.
In the cases below, the sonar will be
turned back on automatically:
.
When the shift lever is in the R
(Reverse) position.
. When the CAMERA button is pushed
and a screen other than the camera
view is shown on the display.
. When vehicle speed decreases below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h).
. When the ignition switch is placed in
the OFF position and turned back to
the ON position again.
To prevent the sonar system from acti-
vating altogether, use the sonar system
settings menu. (See “Sonar function set-
tings” (P.4-26).)
When both Sonar and the MOD system
are deactivated from the settings menu,
the "P" key
will disappear from the
Around View® Monitor screen. (See “Sonar
function settings” (P.4-26) and “MOD func-
tion settings” (P.4-32).)

SONAR SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the sonar function. Failure
to operate the vehicle in accordance
with these system limitations could
result in serious injury or death.
.Inclement weather or ultrasonic
sources such as an automatic car
wash, a truck’s compressed-air
brakes or a pneumatic drill may
affect the function of the system,
including reduced performance
or a false activation.
. The system is not designed to
prevent contact with small or
moving objects.
. The system will not detect small
objects below the bumper, and
may not detect objects close to
the bumper or on the ground.
. The system may not detect the
following objects:
— Fluffy objects such as snow,
cloth, cotton, grass or wool.
— Thin objects such as rope, wire or chain. — Wedge-shaped objects.
. If your vehicle sustains damage
to the bumper fascia, leaving it
misaligned or bent, the sensing
zone may be altered causing in-
accurate measurement of objects
or false alarms.
CAUTION
Excessive noise (such as audio sys-
tem volume or an open vehicle win-
dow) will interfere with the tone and
it may not be heard.
See “Front and rear sonar system” (P.5-
135) for more information on the sonar
system and limitations.
System temporarily unavailable
When the amber markers are displayed at
the corners of the vehicle icon and the
function cannot be activated from the
Parking sonar settings menu (the setting
items are grayed out), the sonar system
may be malfunctioning.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Keep the surface of the sonar (lo-
cated on the front and rear bumper
fascia) free from accumulations of
snow, ice and dirt. Do not scratch the
surface of the sonar when cleaning.
If the sensors are covered, the accu-
racy of the sonar function will be
diminished.
