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 from the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed objects.
SAA1978
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. For example, the display
shows 3 ft (1 m) to the place
*A, but the
actual 3 ft (1 m) distance on the hill is the place
*B. Note that any object on the hill is
further than it appears on the monitor.

OPERATING TIPS
. When the selector lever is shifted to the
R (Reverse) position, the monitor
screen automatically changes to the
rearview monitor mode.
. It may take some time until the rearview
monitor is displayed after the selector
lever has been shifted to R from
another position or to another position
from R. Objects may be distorted
momentarily until the rearview monitor
screen is displayed completely.
. When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not clearly
display objects. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
. When strong light directly enters the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly. This is not a malfunction.
. 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 fluores-
cent light. This is not a malfunction.
. The colors of objects on the rearview
monitor may differ somewhat from
those of the actual object. .
Objects on the monitor may not be clear
in a dark place or at night. This is not a
malfunction.
. If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the
camera, the rearview monitor may not
clearly display objects. Clean the cam-
era.
. Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner
to clean the camera. This will cause
discoloration. To clean the camera,
wipe with a cloth dampened with
diluted mild cleaning agent and then
wipe with a dry cloth.
. Do not damage the camera as the
monitor screen may be adversely af-
fected.
. Do not use wax on the camera window.
Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth
dampened with mild detergent diluted
with water.

When you push theCAMERAbutton or shift
the selector lever into the R (Reverse)
position while the ignition switch is in the
ON position, the Around View Monitor
operates. The monitor displays various
views of the position of the vehicle.
Available views:
. Bird-Eye View
The surrounding view of the vehicle.
. Front-Side View
The view around and ahead of the front
passenger’s side wheel.
. Front View
The view to the front of the vehicle.
. RearView
The view to the rear of the vehicle.
. Rear-Wide View
An approximately 180-degree view of
the rear of the vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the
driver in situations such as slot parking or
parallel parking.
SAA2148
There are some areas where the system
will not detect objects. When in the front or
the rearview display, an object below the
bumper or on the ground may not be
detected
*1. When in the bird-eye view, a
tall object near the seam of the camera
detecting areas will not appear in the monitor
*2.
WARNING
.
The Around View Monitor is a conveni-
ence but it is not a substitute for proper
vehicle operation because it has areas
where objects cannot be viewed. Always
look out the windows and check to be
sure that it is safe to move before
operating the vehicle. Always operate
the vehicle slowly.
. Do not use the Around View Monitor with
the outside mirror in the stored position,
and make sure that the lift gate is
securely closed when operating the
vehicle using the Around View Monitor.
. The distance between objects viewed on
the Around View Monitor differs from the
actual distance.
. The cameras are installed above the
front grille, the outside mirrors and
above the rear license plate. Do not put
anything on the cameras.
. When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the cameras. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing water

condensation on the lens, a malfunction,
fire or an electric shock.
. Do not strike the cameras. They are
precision instruments. Doing so could
cause a malfunction or cause damage
resulting in a fire or an electric shock.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the lens when cleaning dirt
or snow from the front of the camera.
NOTE:
The color of the view on the Around View
Monitor display is different from the actual
view because the system uses infrared
cameras.

HOW TO SEE EACH VIEW
WARNING
.The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a paved,
level surface. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance be-
tween the vehicle and displayed objects.
. Use the displayed lines and the bird-eye
view as a reference. The lines and the
bird-eye view are greatly affected by the
number of occupants, fuel level, vehicle
position, road condition and road grade.
. If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course line and
the bird-eye view may be displayed
incorrectly.
. When driving the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When driving the
vehicle down a hill, objects viewed in
the monitor are closer than they appear.
Use the mirrors or actually look to
properly judge distances to other ob-
jects.
The vehicle width and predicted course
lines are wider than the actual width and
course.

SAA1896
Rearview

Front and rearview
Guiding lines, which indicate the vehicle
width and distances to objects with re-
ference to the vehicle body line
*A, are
displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the vehicle body.
. Red line
*1: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
. Yellow line
*2: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
. Green line
*3: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
. Green line
*4: approx. 10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines
*5:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing
up.
Predicted course lines
*6:
Indicate the predicted course when operat-
ing the vehicle. The predicted course lines
will be displayed on the monitor when the
steering wheel is turned. The predicted
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 neutral position.
The front view will not be displayed when
the vehicle speed is above 6 MPH (10
km/h).
WARNING
. The distance between objects viewed in
the rearview differs from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens is used.
Objects in the rearview will appear
visually opposite than when viewed in
the rearview and outside mirrors.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predicted course line and the actual
course line.
. If predicted course lines are displayed
incorrectly, drive the vehicle on a
straight road for 110 yd (100 m) at a
speed of above 20 MPH (30 km/h).
. The displayed lines on the rearview will
appear slightly off to the right because
the rearview camera is not installed in
the rear center of the vehicle.
NOTE:
When the monitor displays the front view
and the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or less from the neutral position,
both the right and left predicted course
lines
*6are displayed. When the steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or more, a
line is displayed only on the opposite side
of the turn.
