a) Vehicle width guide lines (green)
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 (red) and 1 meter
(yellow) from the rear bumper (at the
center point of each of the lines).
CAUTION
The guide lines on the screen are
fixed 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.

qRear View Monitor Operation
The operation of the rear view monitor when reversing the vehicle varies depending on the
traffic, road, and vehicle conditions. The amount of steering and the timing also varies
depending on conditions, so confirm 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. Confirming the surrounding conditions, reverse the vehicle.
(Screen display)
(Actual view)
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.

distance guide lines appear parallel in the monitor, they may not actually be parallel on the
ground.
