1. REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
1. REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM*
The  rear  view  monitor  system  assists
the driver by displaying an image of the
view  behind  the  vehicle  with  fixed
guide lines on the screen while backing
up, for example while parking.
INFORMATION
●The  screen  illustrations  used  in  this  text
are  intended  as  examples,  and  may  dif-
fer  from  the  image  that  is  actually  dis-
played on the screen.
DRIVING PRECAUTIONS
The rear view monitor system is a sup-
plemental device intended to assist the
driver when backing up. When backing
up, be sure to visually check all around
the vehicle both directly and using the
mirrors  before  proceeding.  If  you  do
not,  you  may  hit  another  vehicle,  and
could possibly cause an accident.
Pay  attention  to  the  following  precau-
tions when using the rear view monitor
system.

WA R N I N G
●Never  depend  on  the  rear  view  monitor
system  entirely  when  backing  up.  The
image and the position of the guide lines
displayed  on  the  screen  may  differ  from
the actual state.
Use  caution,  just  as  you  would  when
backing up any vehicle.
● Be  sure  to  back  up  slowly,  depressing
the brake pedal to control vehicle speed.
● The  instructions  given  are  only  guide
lines.  When  and  how  much  to  turn  the
steering  wheel  will  vary  according  to
traffic  conditions,  road  surface  condi-
tions,  vehicle  condition,  etc.  when  park-
ing. It is necessary to be fully aware of
this  before  using  the  rear  view  monitor
system.
● When parking, be sure to check that the
parking  space  will  accommodate  your
vehicle before maneuvering into it.
● Do not use the rear view monitor system
in the following cases:
• On  icy  or  slick  road  surfaces,  or  in
snow
• When  using  tire  chains  or  emergency tires
• When the back door is not closed com- pletely
• On  roads  that  are  not  flat  or  straight,
such as curves or slopes
● In  low  temperatures,  the  screen  may
darken  or  the  image  may  become  faint.
The  image  could  distort  when  the  vehi-
cle  is  moving,  or  you  may  become
unable  to  see  the  image  on  the  screen.
Be  sure  to  visually  check  all  around  the
vehicle  both  directly  and  using  the  mir-
rors before proceeding.
● If the tire sizes are changed, the position
of the  fixed  guide  lines  displayed  on the
screen may change.
● The  camera  uses  a  special  lens.  The
distances between objects and pedestri-
ans  that  appear  in  the  image  displayed
on  the  screen  will  differ  from  the  actual
distances.( P.193)

WA R N I N G
●Never  depend  on  the  panoramic  view
monitor  entirely.  The  image  and  the
position  of  the  guide  lines  displayed  on
the  screen  may  differ  from  the  actual
state.  Use  caution  just  as  you  would
when driving any other vehicle.
● Always  make  sure  to  check  all  around
the  vehicle  with  your  own  eyes  when
driving.
● Never  drive  while  looking  only  at  the

ferent  from  actual  conditions.  If  you  are
driving  while  looking  only  at  the  screen,
you  may  hit  a  person  or  an  object,
resulting  in  an  accident.  When  driving,
be sure to check the vehicle’s surround-
ings  with  your  own  eyes  and  the  vehi-
cle’s mirrors.

NOTICE
●There  are  blind  spots  around  the  vehi-
cle.  Accordingly,  there  are  regions  not
displayed  in  panoramic  view/moving
view/see-through view.
● Three-dimensional  objects  displayed  in
wide  front  view  or  rear  view  may  not  be
displayed  in  panoramic  view/moving
view/see-through view.
● People  and  other  three-dimensional
obstacles  may  appear  differently  when
displayed  on  the  panoramic  view  moni-
tor.  (These  differences  include,  among
others, cases in which displayed objects
appear  to  have  fallen  over,  disappear
near  image  processing  areas,  appear
from  image  processing  areas,  or  when
the  actual  distance  to  an  object  differs
from the displayed position.)
NOTICE
●When  the  back  door,  which  is  equipped
with  the  back  camera,  or  front  doors,
which  are  equipped  with  door  mirrors
that  have  built-in  side  cameras,  are
open, images will not be displayed prop-
erly on the panoramic view monitor.
● The vehicle icon displayed in panoramic
view/moving  view/see-through  view  is  a
computer generated image. Accordingly,
properties  such  as  the  color,  shape  and
size  will  differ  from  the  actual  vehicle.
For  this  reason,  nearby  three-dimen-
sional  objects  may  appear  to  be  touch-
ing  the  vehicle,  and  actual  distances  to
three-dimensional  objects  may  differ
from those displayed.
