When the shift selector is shifted into the R
(Reverse) position, the monitor display shows a
rearward view from the vehicle.
WARNING
The system is designed as an aid to the driver in detecting large stationary ob-
jects to help avoid damaging the ve-
hicle. The system will not detect small
objects below the bumper, and may
not detect objects close to the bumper
or on the ground.
The RearView Monitor is a conve- nience but it is not a substitute for
proper backing. Always turn and check
that it is safe to do so before backing
up. Always back up slowly.
Objects viewed in the RearView Moni- tor differ from actual distance because
a wide-angle lens is used.
Make sure that the hatch is securely closed when backing up.
Do not put anything on the rearview camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled on top of the hatch. 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 wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock.
Do not strike the camera. It is a preci- sion instrument. Otherwise, it may
malfunction or cause damage result-
ing in a fire or an electric shock.
CAUTION
There is a plastic cover over the camera.
Do not scratch the cover when cleaning
dirt or snow from the cover.
HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED
LINES

and distances to objects with reference to the
vehicle body line
Aare displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the vehicle body.
Red line
1: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
PREDICTED AND ACTUAL
DISTANCES
The distance guide line and the vehicle width
guide 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 vehicle and displayed objects.
Backing up on a steep uphill
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the dis-
tance guide lines and the vehicle width guide
lines are shown closer than the actual distance.
For example, the display shows 3 ft (1.0 m) to the
place
A, but the actual 3 ft (1.0 m) distance onthe hill is the place
B. Note that any object on
the hill is further than it appears on the monitor.

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.
For example, the display shows 3 ft (1.0 m) to the
place
A, but the actual 3 ft (1.0 m) distance onthe hill is the place
B. Note that any object on
the hill is closer than it appears on the monitor.
Backing up behind a projecting object
The positionCis shown farther than the position
Bin the display. However, the positionCis
actually at the same distance as the position
A.

actual backing up course.
ADJUSTING THE SCREEN
The procedure for adjusting the quality of the
screen differs depending on the type of screen
present on the vehicle.
For vehicles without Navigation System:
1. Press the ENTER/SETTING button.
2. Turn the TUNE-SCROLL knob to highlight the “Brightness” or “Contrast” key.
3. Press the ENTER/SETTING button.
4. Adjust the level using the TUNE-SCROLL knob and then press the ENTER/SETTING
button to apply the adjustment. Do not adjust the Brightness or Contrast of the
RearView Monitor while the vehicle is moving.
OPERATING TIPS
When the shift selector is shifted to R (Re-verse) , the monitor screen automatically
changes to the RearView Monitor mode. How-
ever, the radio can be heard.
It may take some time until the RearView Moni- tor is displayed after the shift selector has been
shifted to R (Reverse) . Objects may be dis-
torted momentarily until the RearView Monitor
screen is displayed completely. When the shift
selector is returned to a position other than R
(Reverse) , it may take some time until the
screen changes. Objects on the screen may be
distorted until they are completely displayed.
When the temperature is extremely high or low, the screen may not clearly display objects. This
is not a malfunction.
When strong light directly enters 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. This is not a malfunction.
The screen may flicker under fluorescent light. This is not a malfunction.

ways. – If it occurs while charging is being per-
formed:– The climate control system will stop
once. If the power supply is restored
within approximately 5 minutes, the
climate control system will restart.
However, if more than 5 minutes
have elapsed, the climate control
system will not restart.
