•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 condensation on the lens, a
malfunction, fire or an electric shock.
• Do not strike the camera. It is a preci-
sion instrument. Otherwise, it may
malfunction or cause damage result-
ing in a fire or an electric shock.
The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:
• 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 displayed
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 fluorescent 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 accumulate 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 cleaning agent, then
wipe with a dry cloth.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for the proper use of the In-
telligent Around View Monitor system
could result in serious injury or death
• The Intelligent Around View Monitor
is a convenience feature and is not a
substitute for proper vehicle opera-
tion because it has areas where ob-
jects cannot be viewed. The four cor-
ners of the vehicle in particular, are
areas where objects do not always
appear in the bird’s-eye, front, or rear
views. Always check your surround-
ings to be sure that it is safe to move
before operating the vehicle. Always
operate the vehicle slowly.
• The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the front of
the camera. The Intelligent Around View Monitor sys-
tem is designed as an aid to the driver in
situations such as slot parking or parallel
parking.
The monitor displays various views of the
position of the vehicle in a split screen for-
mat. Not all views are available at all times.
Available views:
• Front View
An approximately 150–degree view of the
front of the vehicle.
• Rear View An approximately 150–degree view of the
rear of the vehicle.
• Bird's-Eye View The surrounding views of the vehicle
from above.
• Front-Side View The view around and ahead of the front
passenger's side wheel.
• Full Screen Rear View (if so equipped) The view to the rear of the vehicle (which
is a little wider than the standard Rear
View). To display the multiple views, the Intelligent
Around View Monitor system uses cam-
eras located in the front grille, on the vehi-
cle’s outside mirrors and one just above
the vehicle’s license plate
O1.

Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the vehicle body:
• Red line
O1: approximately 1.5 f t (0.5 m)
• Yellow line
O2: approximately 3 f t (1 m)
• Green line
O3: approximately 7 f t (2 m)
• Green line
O4: approximately 10 f t (3 m) (if
so equipped)
Vehicle width guide lines
O5:
Indicate the approximate vehicle width
when backing up. Predicted course lines
O6:
Indicate the predicted course when oper-
ating the vehicle. The predicted course
lines will be displayed on the monitor when
the steering wheel is turned. The predicted
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).
NOTE:
When the monitor displays the front
view and the steering wheel turns about
90 degrees or less from the straight-
ahead position, both the right and lef t
predicted course lines
O6are displayed.
When the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or more, a line is displayed only
on the opposite side of the turn.
Bird’s-eye view
The bird's-eye view shows the overhead
view of the vehicle, which helps confirm the
vehicle position and the predicted course
to a parking space.
The vehicle icon
O1shows the position of
the vehicle. Note that the apparent dis-
tance between objects viewed in the
bird's-eye view may differ somewhat from
the actual distance to the vehicle.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
O2are indicated in black.

The non-viewable areaO2is highlighted in
yellow for several seconds af ter the bird’s-
eye view is displayed. It will be shown only
the first time af ter the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.
In addition, the non-viewable corners are
displayed in red and blink for the first 3
seconds
O3to remind the driver to be cau-
tious.
Predicted course lines
O4(if so equipped)
indicate the predicted course when oper-
ating the vehicle. The predicted course
lines will be displayed on the monitor when
the steering wheel is turned. The predicted 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 neutral position.
When the monitor displays the front view
and the steering wheel turns about 90 de-
grees or less from the neutral position, the
two green predicted course lines are
shown in front of the vehicle.
When the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or more, one green predicted
course line is shown in front of the vehicle
and the other predicted course line is
shown at the side of the vehicle.
When the monitor displays the rear view,
the predicted course lines are shown at the
back of the vehicle.

Front-side view
Guiding lines
Guiding lines that indicate the approximate
width and the front end of the vehicle are
displayed on the monitor.
The front-of-vehicle line
O1shows the front
part of the vehicle.
The side-of-vehicle line
O2shows the ap-
proximate vehicle width including the out-
side mirrors.
The extensions
O3of both the frontO1and
side
O2lines are shown with a green dotted
line.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTED
AND ACTUAL DISTANCES
The displayed guidelines and their loca-
tions on the ground are for approximate
reference only. Objects on uphill or downhill
surfaces or projecting objects will be actu-
ally located at distances different from
those displayed in the monitor relative to
the guidelines (refer to illustrations). When
in doubt, turn around and view the objects
as you are backing up, or park and exit the
vehicle to view the positioning of objects
behind the vehicle.
Backing up on a steep uphill
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width
guide lines are shown closer than the ac-
tual distance. Note that any object on the
hill is further than it appears on the
monitor.

Backing up on a steep downhill
When backing up the vehicle down a hill,
the distance guide lines and the vehicle
width guide lines are shown farther than
the actual distance. Note that any object
on the hill is closer than it appears on the
monitor.
Backing up near a projecting
object
The predicted course linesOAdo not touch
the object in the display. However, the ve-
hicle may hit the object if it projects over
the actual backing up course.
Backing up behind a projecting

sition
