108 Instruments and Controls
Head-Up Display (HUD)
{Warning
If the HUD image is too bright or
too high in your field of view, it
may take you more time to see
things you need to see when it is
dark outside. Be sure to keep the
HUD image dim and placed low in
your field of view.
With HUD, some information
concerning the operation of the
vehicle is projected onto the
windshield. The image is projected
through the HUD lens on top of the
instrument panel. The information
appears as an image focused out
toward the front of the vehicle.
Caution
If you try to use the HUD image
as a parking aid, you may
misjudge the distance and
damage your vehicle. Do not use
the HUD image as a parking aid. The HUD may display some of the
following alerts or information for
vehicles equipped with these
features:
.
Speedometer
. Tachometer
. High Beam Indicator Symbol
. Forward Collision Alert Warnings
. Audio Functions
. Navigation
. Transmission Position
. Shift Up Meter
. Cruise Control Active
The HUD control is to the left of the
steering wheel. To adjust the HUD image:
1. Adjust the driver seat.
2. Start the engine.
Use the following settings to adjust
the HUD.
$(Image Adjustment) : Press
down or up to center the HUD
image. The HUD image can only be
adjusted up and down, not side
to side.
PAGE (Display View) : Press to
select the display view. Turn
clockwise or counterclockwise to
brighten or dim the display. Turn
completely counterclockwise to turn
the display off.
The HUD image will automatically
dim and brighten to compensate for
outside lighting. The HUD
brightness control can also be
adjusted as needed.
The HUD image can temporarily
light up depending on the angle and
position of the sunlight on the HUD
display. This is normal.
Polarized sunglasses could make
the HUD image harder to see.
