HOW TO READ DISPLAYED LINESGUID-2618A9E5-1A1F-4AE7-9A2B-28557D8D9F81Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle
width and distances to objects with re-
ference to the bumper line
*Aare dis-
played on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the bumper.
. Red line
*1: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
. Yellow line
*2: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
. Green line
*3: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
. Green line
*4: approx. 10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines
*5:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up.
Predictive course lines
*6:
Indicate the predictive course when back-
ing up. The predictive course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when the selec-
tor/shift lever is in the “R”(Reverse)
position and the steering wheel is turned.
The predictive 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.
The vehicle width guide lines and the width
of the predictive course lines are wider
than the actual width and course.
WARNING
. Always turn and check that it is safe to
park your car before backing up. Always
back up slowly.
. If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course line
may not be displayed correctly.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predictive course line and the actual
course line.

.The displayed lines will appear slightly
off to the right because the rearview
camera is not installed in the rear center
of the vehicle.
. The distance guide line and the vehicle
width guide line should be used as a
reference only when the vehicle is on a
level paved surface. The distance viewed
on the monitor is for reference only and
may be different from the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed ob-
jects.
. When backing up the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When backing up the
vehicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear. Use
the inside mirror or glance over your
shoulder to properly judge distances to
other objects.

OPERATING TIPSGUID-C7806C41-88DD-4A7A-BEE4-AA3328E302E3. When the selector/shift lever is shifted
to the “R”(Reverse) position, the
monitor screen automatically changes
to the rearview monitor mode. How-
ever, the radio can be heard.
. When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not clearly
display objects. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
. When strong light is directly coming on
the camera, objects may not be dis-
played clearly. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
. Vertical lines may be seen in objects on
the screen. This is due to strong
reflected light from the bumper. This
is not a malfunction.
. The screen may flicker under fluores-
cent light. This is not a malfunction.
. The colors of objects on the RearView
monitor may differ somewhat from the
actual color of objects. This is not a
malfunction.
. Objects on the monitor may not be clear
in a dark environment. This is not a
malfunction.

WARNING
.The air conditioner cooling function
operates only when the engine is run-
ning.
. Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the support of
others alone in your vehicle. Pets should
not be left alone either. On hot, sunny
days, temperatures in a closed vehicle
could quickly become high enough to
cause severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals.
. Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.
Start the engine and operate the automatic
climate control system.
When the “STATUS”button is pushed, the
automatic climate control status screen
will appear. (See “How to use STATUS
