WARNING
∙ Failure to follow the warnings and in-structions for proper use of the RearView
Monitor system could result in serious in-
jury or death.
∙ RearView Monitor is a convenience fea- ture and is not a substitute for proper
backing. Always turn and look out the
windows and check mirrors to be sure
that it is safe to move before operating
the vehicle. Always back up slowly.
∙ The system is designed as an aid to the driver in showing large stationary ob-
jects 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 be-
tween the vehicle and displayed objects.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when clean-
ing dirt or snow from the front of the
camera. The RearView Monitor system automatically
shows a rear view of the vehicle in the upper
touch-screen display (upper display) when
the shift lever is shifted into the R (Reverse)
position. When activating the RearView
Monitor, the guide lines, the icons and the
messages may not be displayed immediately.
The radio can still be heard while the Rear-
View Monitor is active.
To display the rear view, the RearView Moni-
tor system uses a camera located just above
the vehicle’s license plate
1.
REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
OPERATION
With the engine running, move the shift lever
to the R (Reverse) position to operate the
RearView Monitor. When activating the
RearView Monitor, the guide lines, the icons
and the messages may not be displayed im-
mediately.

Indicate the vehicle width when backing up.
Predicted course lines
5
Indicate the predicted course when backing
up. The predicted course lines will be dis-
played on the monitor when the shift lever is
in the R (Reverse) position and the steering
wheel is turned. The predicted course lines
will move depending on how much the steer-
ing wheel is turned and will not be displayed
while the steering wheel is in the straight-
ahead position.
The vehicle width guide lines and the width of
the predicted course lines are wider than the
actual width and course.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
PREDICTED AND ACTUAL
DISTANCES
The displayed guidelines and their locations
on the ground are for approximate reference
only. Objects on uphill or downhill surfaces or
projecting objects will be actually 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 position-
ing 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 actual
distance. Note that any object on the hill is
further than it appears on the upper display.
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 upper display.
Backing up near a projecting object
The predicted course linesAdo not touch
the object in the display. However, the vehicle
may hit the object if it projects over the actual
backing up course.

When the camera is first activated with the
bird’s-eye view in the display, a red icon will
flash on the upper display. This indicates that
the sonar system is activated. For additional
information on the front and rear sonar sys-
tem, refer to “Front and rear sonar system” in
the “Starting and driving” section of this
manual.

WARNING
∙ The distance guide lines and the vehiclewidth lines should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a paved, level
surface. The apparent distance viewed
on the monitor may be different than the
actual distance between the vehicle and
displayed objects.
∙ Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-eye view as a reference. The lines and the
bird’s-eye view are greatly affected by
the number of occupants, cargo, fuel
level, vehicle position, road condition and
road grade.
∙ If the tires are replaced with different sized tires, the predicted course lines and
the bird’s-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.
∙ Objects in the rear view will appear visu- ally opposite compared to when viewed
in the monitor and outside mirrors.
∙ Use the mirrors or actually look to prop- erly judge distances to other objects.
∙ On a snow-covered or slippery road, there may be a difference between the
predicted course lines and the actual
course line.
∙ The vehicle width and predicted course lines are wider than the actual width and
course.
∙ The displayed lines will appear slightly off to the right, because the rearview
camera is not installed in the rear center
of the vehicle. Front and rear view

Indicate the predicted course when operating
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 steer-
ing wheel is turned and may 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 de-
grees or less from the straight-ahead posi-
tion, both the right and left predicted course
lines
6are 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 park-
ing space.
The vehicle icon
1shows the position of the
vehicle. Note that the apparent distance be-
tween objects viewed in the bird’s-eye view
may differ somewhat from the actual dis-
tance to the vehicle.

∙ The system will not operate at speeds be-low approximately 37 mph (60 km/h) or
if it cannot detect lane markers.
∙ Do not use the LDW system under the following conditions as it may not func-
tion properly:
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
– When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow.
– When driving on winding or uneven roads.
– When there is a lane closure due to road repairs.
– When driving in a makeshift or tempo- rary lane.
– When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
– When driving without normal tire conditions (for example, tire wear, low
tire pressure, installation of spare tire,
tire chains, nonstandard wheels).
– When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
– When you are towing a trailer or other vehicle. The system may not function properly under
the following conditions:
∙ On roads where there are multiple paral- lel lane markers; lane markers that are
faded or not painted clearly; yellow
painted lane markers; non-standard lane
markers; or lane markers covered with
water, dirt, snow, etc.
∙ On roads where the discontinued lane markers are still detectable.
∙ On roads where there are sharp curves.
∙ On roads where there are sharply con- trasting objects, such as shadows, snow,
water, wheel ruts, seams or lines remain-
ing after road repairs. (The LDW system
could detect these items as lane markers.)
∙ On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
∙ When the vehicle’s traveling direction does not align with the lane marker.
∙ When traveling close to the vehicle in front of you, which obstructs the lane
camera unit detection range.
∙ When rain, snow, dirt or an object ad- heres to the windshield in front of the
lane camera unit. ∙ When the headlights are not bright due to
dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not
adjusted properly.
∙ When strong light enters the lane camera unit. (For example, the light directly
shines on the front of the vehicle at sun-
rise or sunset.)
∙ When a sudden change in brightness oc- curs. (For example, when the vehicle en-
ters or exits a tunnel or under a bridge.)
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
If the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight under
high temperature conditions (over approxi-
mately 104°F [40°C]) and then started, the
LDW system may be deactivated automati-
cally and the following message will appear in
the vehicle information display: “Not avail-
able: High Camera Temp.”
When the interior temperature is reduced, the
LDW system will resume operating auto-
matically.
