WARNING
∙ Failure to follow the warnings and in-structions for the proper use of the
Intelligent Around View Monitor sys-
tem could result in serious injury or
death.
∙ The Intelligent Around View Monitor is a convenience feature and is not a
substitute for proper vehicle opera-
tion because it has areas where ob-
jects cannot be viewed. The four cor-
ners of the vehicle in particular, are
areas where objects do not always
appear in the bird’s-eye, front, or rear
views. Always check your surround-
ings to be sure that it is safe to move
before operating the vehicle. Always
operate the vehicle slowly.
∙ The driver is always responsible for safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the front of
the camera. The Intelligent Around View Monitor sys-
tem is designed as an aid to the driver in
situations such as slot parking or parallel
parking.
The monitor displays various views of the
position of the vehicle in a split screen for-
mat. Not all views are available at all times.
Available views:
∙ Front View An approximately 150–degree view of
the front of the vehicle.
∙ Rear View An approximately 150–degree view of
the rear of the vehicle.
∙ Bird’s-Eye View The surrounding views of the vehicle
from above.
∙ Front-Side View The view around and ahead of the front
passenger’s side wheel. To display the multiple views, the Intelligent
Around View Monitor system uses cam-
eras located in the front grille, on the vehi-
cle’s outside mirrors and one just above
the vehicle’s license plate
