2-2Instruments and controls

Battery saver system
A chime will sound when the driver side door is
opened with the light switch in theorposition and the ignition switch in the
OFF or LOCK position.
When the headlight switch is in the
orposition while the ignition switch is in
the ON position, the lights will automatically
turn off 5 minutes after the ignition switch has
been pushed to the OFF position.
When the headlight switch remains in the
orposition after the lights auto-
matically turn off, the lights will turn on when
the ignition switch is pushed to the ON posi-
tion.
CAUTION
● When you turn on the headlight switch again
after the lights automatically turn off, the
lights will not turn off automatically. Be sure
to turn the light switch to the OFF position
when you leave the vehicle for extended pe-
riods of time, otherwise the battery will be
discharged.
● Never leave the light switch on when the
engine is not running for extended periods of
time even if the headlights turn off
automatically.
Headlight aiming control (if so
equipped)
Depending on the number of occupants in the
vehicle and the load it is carrying, the headlight
axis may be higher than desired. If the vehicle
is traveling on a hilly road, the headlights may
directly hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle
ahead or the windshield of the oncoming ve-
hicle. The light axis can be lowered with the
operation of the switch.
The larger the number designated on the
switch, the lower the axis.
When traveling with no heavy load or on a flat
road, select position 0.
WARNING
Xenon headlights are extremely bright com-
pared to conventional headlights. If the xenon
headlights hit the rearview mirror of the vehicle
ahead or the windshield of oncoming vehicle,
the driver of these vehicles may have difficulty
driving because of the brightness. Use the
headlight aiming control switch to lower the
light axis. See “XENON HEADLIGHTS” earlier in
this section for additional information.
Daytime running light system
(Canada only)
The daytime running lights automatically illumi-
nate when the engine is started with the park-
ing brake released. The daytime running lights
operate with the headlight switch in the OFF
position or in the
position. Turn the
headlight switch to theposition for full
illumination when driving at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the engine
is started, the daytime running lights do not
illuminate. The daytime running lights illumi-
nate once the parking brake is released. The
daytime running lights will remain on until the
ignition switch is pushed to the OFF position.

WARNING
●The Around View Monitor is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper vehicle
operation because it has areas where ob-
jects cannot be viewed. Always look out the
windows and check to be sure that it is safe
to move before operating the vehicle. Always
operate the vehicle slowly.
● Do not use the Around View Monitor with the
outside mirror in the stored position, and
make sure that the lift gate is securely
closed when operating the vehicle using the
Around View Monitor.
● The distance between objects viewed on the
Around View Monitor differs from the actual
distance.
● The cameras are installed above the front
grille, the outside mirrors and above the rear
license plate. Do not put anything on 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 conden-
sation on the lens, a malfunction, fire or an
electric shock. ●
Do not strike the cameras. They are precision
instruments. Doing so could cause a mal-
function or cause damage resulting in a fire
or an electric shock.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the lens when cleaning dirt or
snow from the front of the camera.
NOTE:
The color of the view on the Around View Monitor
display is different from the actual view because
the system uses infrared cameras.

HOW TO SEE EACH VIEW
WARNING
● The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line should be used as a reference only
when the vehicle is on a paved, level surface.
The distance viewed on the monitor is for
reference only and may be different than the
actual distance between the vehicle and dis-
played objects.
● Use the displayed lines and the bird-eye
view as a reference. The lines and the bird-
eye view are greatly affected by the number
of occupants, fuel level, vehicle position,
road condition and road grade.
● If the tires are replaced with different sized
tires, the predictive course lines and the
bird-eye view may be displayed incorrectly.
● When driving the vehicle up a hill, objects
viewed in the monitor are further than they
appear. When driving the vehicle down a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are closer than
they appear. Use the mirrors or actually look
to properly judge distances to other objects.
The vehicle width and predictive course lines
are wider than the actual width and course.
4-22Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

Front and rearview
Guiding lines, which indicate the vehicle width
and distances to objects with reference to the
vehicle body line
A, are displayed on the
monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the vehicle body.
● 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 operating
the vehicle. The predictive course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when 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 front view will not be displayed when the
vehicle speed is above 6 MPH (10 km/h).
WARNING
● The distance between objects viewed in the
rearview differs from actual distance be-
cause a wide-angle lens is used. Objects in
the rearview will appear visually opposite
than when viewed in the rearview and out-
side mirrors.
● On a snow-covered or slippery road, there
may be a difference between the predictive
course lines and the actual course line.
● If the battery is disconnected or becomes
discharged, the predictive course lines may
be displayed incorrectly. If this occurs, per-
form the following procedure:
– Drive the vehicle on a straight road for more than 5 minutes.
● When the steering wheel is turned with the
ignition switch in the ACC position, the pre-
dictive course lines may be displayed
incorrectly.
● The displayed lines on the rearview will ap-
pear slightly off to the right because the
rearview camera is not installed in the rear
center of the vehicle.
