Always drive carefully confi rming the safety of the rear and the surrounding conditions
by looking directly with your eyes:
Reversing the vehicle by only looking at the screen is dangerous as it may cause an
accident or a collision with an object. The rear view monitor is only a visual assist
device when reversing the vehicle. The images on the screen may be different from the
actual conditions.

monitor under the following conditions is dangerous and could result in injury or
vehicle damage or both.
 


 Icy or snow-covered roads.



 Tyre chains or a temporary spare tyre is installed.



 The liftgate is not fully closed.



 The vehicle is on a road incline. 

 When the display is cold, images may course across the monitor or the screen and
may be dimmer than usual, which could cause diffi culty in confi rming the surrounding
conditions of the vehicle. Always drive carefully confi rming the safety of the rear and
the surrounding conditions by looking directly with your eyes.
  Do not apply excessive force to the camera. The camera position and angle may
deviate.

Viewing the Display
Guide lines which indicate the width of the vehicle (yellow) are displayed on the screen as a
reference to the approximate width of the vehicle in comparison to the width of the parking
space you are about to back into.
Use this display view for parking your vehicle in a parking space or garage.
b
a
a) Vehicle width guide lines (yellow)
These guide lines serve as a reference to the approximate width of the vehicle.
b) Distance guide lines.
These guide lines indicate the approximate distance to a point measured from the
vehicle's rear (from the end of the bumper).
The red and yellow lines indicate the points about 50 cm (19 in) for the red line and 100
cm (39.3 in) for the yellow lines from the rear bumper (at the centre point of each of the
lines).
CAUTION
The guide lines on the screen are fi xed lines. They are not synced to the driver's turning
of the steering wheel. Always be careful and check the area to the vehicle's rear and the
surrounding area directly with your eyes while backing up.

Rear View Monitor Operation
The operation of the rear view monitor when reversing the vehicle varies depending on
the traffi c, road, and vehicle conditions. The amount of steering and the timing also varies
depending on conditions, so confi rm the surrounding conditions directly with your eyes and
steer the vehicle in accordance with the conditions.
Be well aware of the above cautions prior to using the rear view monitor.
NOTE
Images displayed on the monitor from the rear view parking camera are reversed images
(mirror images).
1. Shift the shift lever to R to switch the display to the rear view monitor display.
2. Confi rming the surrounding conditions, reverse the vehicle.
(Display condition) (Vehicle condition)
3. After your vehicle begins entering the parking space, continue backing up slowly so that
the distance between the vehicle width lines and the sides of the parking space on the left
and right are roughly equal.
4. Continue to adjust the steering wheel until the vehicle width guide lines are parallel to
the left and right sides of the parking space.

NOTE
Because there may be a difference between the displayed image, such as indicated below,
and the actual conditions when parking, always verify the safety at the rear of the vehicle
and the surrounding area directly with your eyes.
 
 In the image of the parking space (or garage) displayed below, even though the back
end and distance guide lines appear parallel in the monitor, they may not actually be
parallel on the ground.
  When parking in a space with a division line on only one side of the parking space, the
division line and the vehicle width guide line may appear parallel on the monitor, but
they may not actually be parallel on the ground.

Variance Between Actual Road Conditions and Displayed Image
Some variance occurs between the actual road and the displayed road. Such variance in
distance perspective could lead to an accident. Note the following conditions that may cause
a variance in distance perspective.
When the vehicle is tilted due to the weight of passengers and load
When the vehicle rear is lowered, the object displayed on the screen appears farther than the
actual distance.

Operating Tips for MP3
MP3 stands for MPEG Audio Layer 3,

established by the ISO
*1 working group
(MPEG).
Use of MP3 allows for audio data to be
compressed to approximately a tenth of
the source data size.
This unit plays fi les with the extension
(.mp3) as MP3 fi les.
*1 International Organisation for
Standardisation
CAUTION
Do not use an audio fi le extension on
fi les other than audio fi les. In addition,
do not change the audio fi le extension.
Otherwise, the unit will not recognise
the fi le correctly resulting in noise or a
malfunction.
