the danger that could lead to an acci-
dent.
●Always clean the camera without
damaging it.
●Do not install market electronic parts
(such as Illuminated license plate, fog
lamps, etc.) in the camera vicinity.
●Do not subject the camera vicinity to
strong impacts. If the vicinity is sub-
jected to a strong impact, have the

●Do not disassemble, remodel or paint
the camera.
●Do not attach accessories or stickers
to the camera.
●Do not install market protection parts
(bumper trim, etc.) to the rear bumper.
●Maintain suitable tire air pressure.
●Make sure the trunk is completely
closed.
■RCD function is turned off

■AVS (Adaptive Variable Suspen-
sion System) (if equipped)
By independently controlling the
damping force of the shock absorbers
for each of the 4 wheels according to
the road and driving conditions, this
system helps riding comfort with supe-
rior vehicle stability, and helps good
vehicle posture.
Also, the damping force changes
depending on the selected driving
mode. ( P.213)
■When the TRAC/VSC systems are
operating
The slip indicator light will flash while the
TRAC/VSC systems are operating.
■Disabling the TRAC system
If the vehicle gets stuck in mud, dirt or snow,
the TRAC system may reduce power from
the engine to the wheels. Pressing the
switch to turn the system off may
make it easier for you to rock the vehicle in
order to free it.
To turn the TRAC system off, quickly press
and release the switch.
The “Traction Control Turned Off” will be
shown on the multi-information display.
Press the switch again to turn the
system back on.
■Turning off both TRAC and VSC sys-
tems
To turn the TRAC and VSC systems off,
press and hold the switch for more
than 3 seconds while the vehicle is stopped.
The VSC OFF indicator light will come on
