• The system is designed as an aid tothe driver in showing large station-
ary objects directly behind the ve-
hicle, to help avoid damaging the ve-
hicle.
• The distance guide line and the ve- hicle 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 refer-
ence 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 front of
the camera. The RearView Monitor system automati-
cally shows a rear view of the vehicle when
the shif t lever is shif ted into the R (Reverse)
position. The radio can still be heard while
the RearView 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 EV (electric vehicle) system on and
in “READY to Drive”, move the shif t lever to
the R (Reverse) position to operate the
RearView Monitor.

HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED
LINES
Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle
width and distances to objects with refer-
ence to the vehicle body line
Aare dis-
played on the monitor.
Distance guide lines
Indicate distances from the vehicle body.
• Red line
1: approx. 1.5 f t (0.5 m)
• Yellow line
2: approx. 3 f t (1 m )
• Green line
3: approx. 7 f t (2 m) Vehicle width guide lines
4
Indicate the vehicle width when backing
up.
The width of the vehicle width guide line is
wider than the actual width.
Predictive course lines (if so equipped)
5
Indicate the predicted course when back-
ing up. The predictive course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when the shif t
lever is in the R (Reverse) position and the
steering wheel is turned. The predictive
course lines will move depending on how
much the steering 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 predictive course lines are wider
than the actual width and course.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTED
AND ACTUAL DISTANCES
The displayed guidelines and their loca-
tions on the ground are for approximate
reference only. Objects on uphill or downhill
surfaces or projecting objects will be actu-
ally 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 positioning 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 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. Note that any object on the hill is
closer than it appears on the monitor.
Backing up near a projecting
object
The predictive course lines (if so equipped)
Ado not touch the object in the display.
However, the vehicle may hit the object if it
projects over the actual backing up course.

Backing up behind a projecting
object
The positionCis shown farther than the
position
Bin the display. However, the po-
sition
Cis actually at the same distance as the position
A. The vehicle may hit the
object when backing up to the position
A
if the object projects over the actual back-
ing up course.
HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTIVE
COURSE LINES (IF SO EQUIPPED)
WARNING
• If the tires are replaced with differ- ent sized tires, the predictive course
lines may be displayed incorrectly.
• On a snow-covered or slippery road, there may be a difference between
the predictive course line and the
actual course line.
• If the battery is disconnected or be- comes discharged, the predictive
course lines may be displayed incor-
rectly. If this occurs, please perform
the following procedures:
- Turn the steering wheel from lock
to lock while the EV (electric vehicle)
system is running.
- Drive the vehicle on a straight road
for more than 5 minutes. • When the steering wheel is turned
with the power switch in the ACC po-
sition, the predictive course lines
may be displayed incorrectly.

REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for RearView Monitor. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations could result
in serious injury or death.
• The system cannot completely eliminate blind spots and may not
show every object.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-11
Page 291 of 610
• Underneath the bumper and thecorner areas of the bumper cannot
be viewed on the RearView Monitor
because of its monitoring range
limitation. The system will not show
small objects below the bumper,
and may not show objects close to
the bumper or on the ground.
• Objects viewed in the RearView Monitor differ from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens is used.
• Objects in the RearView Monitor will appear visually opposite compared
to when viewed in the rearview and
outside mirrors.
• Use the displayed lines as a refer- ence. The lines are highly affected by
the number of occupants, fuel level,
vehicle position, road conditions
and road grade.
• Make sure that the rear hatch is se- curely closed when backing up.
• Do not put anything on the rearview camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled 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 condensation on the
lens, a malfunction, fire or an electric
shock.
• Do not strike the camera. It is a pre- cision instrument. Otherwise, it may
malfunction or cause damage re-
sulting 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
objects.
• When strong light directly shines on 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
Monitor may differ somewhat from the
actual color of objects.
• Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a dark environment.
• There may be a delay when switching be- tween views.
• If dirt, rain or snow accumulate on the camera, RearView Monitor may not dis-
play objects clearly. Clean the camera.
• Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth dampened
with a diluted mild cleaning agent, then
wipe with a dry cloth.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
• Do not use alcohol, benzine or thin- ner to clean the camera. This will
cause discoloration.
• 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 wip-
ing it with a dry cloth.
