•The RearView Monitor is a convenience fea-
ture but it is not a substitute for proper
backing up. Always turn and look out the
windows, and check mirrors to be sure that
it is safe to move before operating the ve-
hicle. Always back up slowly.
•The system is designed as an aid to the
driver in showing large stationary objects
directly behind the vehicle, to help avoid
damaging the vehicle.
•The distance guide line and the vehicle
width 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
than the actual distance between the ve-
hicle and displayed objects.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when cleaning
dirt or snow from the lens.
The RearView Monitor system automatically
shows a rear view of the vehicle when the shift
lever is placed in the R (Reverse) position.
The radio can still be heard while the RearView
Monitor is active.To display the rear view, the RearView Monitor
system uses a camera located just above the
vehicle’s rear license plate
1.
REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
OPERATION
With the ignition switch in the ON position,
move the shift lever to the R (Reverse) position
to operate the RearView Monitor.
HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED LINES

•Objects in the RearView Monitor will appear
visually opposite than when viewed in the
rear view and outside mirrors.
•Use the displayed lines as a reference. The
lines are highly affected by the number of
occupants, fuel level, vehicle position, road
conditions and road grade.
•Make sure that the lift gate is securely
closed when backing up.
•Do not put anything on the rear view cam-
era. The rear view camera is installed above
the license plate.
•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 con-
densation on the lens, a malfunction, fire or
an electric shock.
•Do not strike the camera. It is a precision
instrument. Otherwise, it may malfunction
or cause damage resulting 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 ob-
jects.
•When strong light shines directly on to 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 Moni-
tor may differ somewhat from the actual
color of objects.
•Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark environment.
•Do not use wax on the camera window. Wipe
off any wax with a clean cloth dampened
with mild detergent diluted with water.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
•Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to
clean the camera. This will cause discolou-
ration. To clean the camera, wipe with a
cloth dampened with diluted mild cleaning
agent and then wipe with a dry cloth.
•Do not damage the camera as the monitor
screen may be adversely affected.
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the camera
1, the RearView Monitor may not display
objects clearly. Clean the camera by wiping it
with a cloth dampened with a diluted mild
cleaning agent and then wiping it with a dry
cloth.

MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
MOD. Failure to operate the vehicle in accor-
dance with these system limitations could re-
sult in serious injury or death.
•Do not use the MOD system when towing a
trailer (if available). The system may not
function properly.
•Excessive noise (for example, audio system
volume or open vehicle window) will inter-
fere with the chime sound, and it may not be
heard.
•The MOD system performance will be lim-
ited according to environmental conditions
and surrounding objects such as:
–When there is low contrast between
background and the moving objects.
–When there is blinking source of light.
–When strong light such as another vehi-
cle’s headlight or sunlight is present.NSD628

WARNING
•The heater and air conditioner operate only
when the engine is running.
•Never leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in the vehicle. Pets should not be left alone
either. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls and inadvertently be-
come involved in a serious accident and in-
jure themselves. On hot, sunny days, tem-
peratures 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.
•Do not adjust the heating and air condition-
ing controls while driving so that full atten-
tion may be given to vehicle operation.
The heater and air conditioner operate when the
engine is running. The air blower will operate
even if the engine is turned off and the ignition
switch is in the ON position.NOTE
•Condensation forms inside the air condition-
ing unit when the air conditioner (if
equipped) is running, and is safely dis-
charged underneath your vehicle.
Traces of water on the ground are therefore
normal.
•Odors from inside and outside the vehicle
can build up in the air conditioner unit. Odor
can enter the passenger compartment
through the ventilators.
When parking, set the heater and air condi-
tioner controls to turn off air recirculation to
allow fresh air into the passenger compart-
ment. This should help reduce odors inside
the vehicle.
Observe the settings recommended on the fol-
lowing pages. The windows could otherwise
mist up. To prevent the windows from misting
up
•Switch off climate control only briefly.
•Switch on air-recirculation mode only
briefly.
•Switch on the cooling with air dehumidifica-
tion function.
•Switch on the windshield demisting function
briefly, if required.The air-conditioning system/automatic climate
control regulates the temperature and the hu-
midity of the vehicle interior and filters unde-
sirable substances from the air.
The air-conditioning system/automatic climate
control can only be operated when the engine is
running. Optimum operation is only achieved
with the side windows closed.
Always keep the ventilation flaps behind the
side panelling clear. Otherwise the vehicle will
not be ventilated correctly.
NOTE
•Ventilate the vehicle for a brief period during
warm weather. This will speed up the cooling
process and the desired interior temperature
will be reached more quickly.
•The integrated filter filters out most particles
of dust and soot and completely filters out
pollen. With automatic climate control, gas-
eous pollutants and odors will also be re-
duced. A clogged filter reduces the amount
of air supplied to the vehicle interior. For this
reason, you should always observe the inter-
val for replacing the filter, which is specified
in the Service Booklet. As this depends on
environmental conditions, e.g. heavy air pol-
lution, the interval may be shorter than
stated in the Service Booklet.
