the middle of a lane under certain conditions, including the following:
■Environmental conditions
• Driving in bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
• Sudden changes between light and dark, such as an entrance or exit of a tunnel.
• There is little contrast between lane lines and the roadway surface.
• Driving into low sunlight (e.g., at dawn or dusk).
• Strong light is reflec ted onto the roadway.
• Driving in the shadows of trees, buildings, etc.
• Shadows of adjacent objects are parallel to lane markings.

uuSurround View Camera System*uWhen Parking Your Vehicle
Driving
The system may not work properly under the following conditions.
■Surround View Camera System Limitations
ConditionsSolutions
The images may not
appear clearly when:●You activate the system in bad weather (heavy rain,
snow, fog, etc.) or in the dark.
●Camera temperatures are high.●A sudden change between lig ht and dark such as an
entrance or exit of a tunnel.
●You drive into the sunlight (e.g., at dawn or dusk.)
Do not use the surround view camera system but rely
only on visual confirmation until the conditions allow
the system to work properly.
●A camera lens is covered with dirt, moisture, or
debris.
●A camera lens is scratched.
Clean camera lenses with a soft cloth moisturized with
water, mild detergent or glass cleaner.
The audio/information screen is dirty.Wipe off the screen using a soft dry cloth.
A camera angle is
altered.A camera or the area around the camera has been
severely impacted.Do not use the surround view camera system and
contact a dealer.

uuCleaning uExterior Care
Maintenance
If you get gasoline, oil, engine coolant, or battery fluid on resin coated parts, they
may be stained or the coating may peel. Prom ptly wipe it away using a soft cloth and
clean water.
Wipe using a glass cleaner.
Aluminum is susceptible to deterioration caused by salt and other road
contaminants. Use a sponge and mild detergent to wipe away promptly.
Be careful not to use harsh chemicals (inc luding some commercial wheel cleaners) or
a stiff brush. They can damage the clear coat of the aluminum alloy wheels that
helps keep the aluminum from corroding and tarnishing.
The inside lenses of exterior lights (headlights, brake light s, etc.) may fog temporarily
if you have driven in the rain, or after the vehicle has been run through a car wash.
Dew condensation also may build up inside the lenses when there is a significant
enough difference between the ambient and inside lens temperatures (similar to
vehicle windows fogging up in rainy conditions). These conditions are natural
processes, not structural design problems in the exterior lights.
Lens design characteristics ma y result in moisture developing on the light lens frame
surfaces. This also is not a malfunction.
However, if you see large amounts of wa ter accumulation, or large water drops
building up inside the lenses, have your vehicle inspected by a dealer.

1 Maintaining the Bumpers an d Other Resin Coated Parts
Ask a dealer about the correct coating material when
you want to repair the pa inted surface of the parts
made of resin.
