DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTED
AND ACTUAL DISTANCES GUID-9C8077A7-378D-4FBF-A8ED-EAB27EE0942F
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.

Backing up on a steep uphill GUID-FBF6C947-02DC-491C-94A4-77253C889F35
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

do not touch
the object in the display. However, the
vehicle may hit the object if it projects over
the actual backing up course. SAA1924
Backing up behind a projecting
object GUID-2B9F6D88-E4A9-43BC-A5D2-C5EF6F380AE0
The position
* C
is shown further than the

and the engine is not running. OPERATING TIPS GUID-C7806C41-88DD-4A7A-BEE4-AA3328E302E3
. When the selector/shift lever is shifted
to the “ R ” (Reverse) position, the
monitor screen automatically changes
to the rearview monitor mode. How-
ever, the radio can be heard.
. It may take some time until the rearview
monitor is displayed after the selector/
shift 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.

cause severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals.

long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.
