will be displayed on the screen.
. If the file name is too long, some file
names may not be entirely displayed.
. When the total number of characters in
the file name exceeds 100 or if 1 file
name in a directory exceeds 100
characters, all files will show a shor-
tened 8-character version. The image
will still be displayed when selected.

When the selector lever is shifted into the
“R”(Reverse) position, the monitor display
shows view to the rear of the vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the
driver in detecting large stationary objects
to help avoid damaging the vehicle. The
system will not detect small objects below
the bumper and may not detect objects
close to the bumper or on the ground.
WARNING
. The RearView camera is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper
backing up. Always turn and check that
it is safe to do so before backing up.
Always back up slowly.
. Objects viewed in the RearView Monitor
differ from actual distance because a
wide-angle lens is used. Objects in the
RearView Monitor will appear visually
opposite like ones viewed in the inside
and outside mirrors.
. Make sure that the trunk is securely
closed when backing up.
. Underneath the bumper and the corner
areas of the bumper cannot be viewed on
the RearView monitor because of its monitoring range limitation.
. Do not put anything on the RearView
camera. The RearView camera is in-
stalled above the license plate.
. When washing the vehicle with high-
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing water
condensation on the lens, a malfunction,
fire or an electric shock.
. Do not strike the camera. It is a precision
instrument. Otherwise, it may malfunc-
tion or cause damage resulting in a fire
or an electric shock.
CAUTION
There is a plastic cover over the camera. Do
not scratch the cover when cleaning dirt or
snow from the cover.

width and distances to objects with re-
ference to the bumper line

up.
Predictive course lines
*6:
Indicate the predictive course when back-
ing up. The predictive course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when the selector
lever is in the “R”(Reverse) position and
the steering wheel is turned. The predictive
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.
HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTIVE
COURSE LINES
WARNING
. Always turn and check that it is safe to
park your car before backing up. Always
back up slowly.
. Use the displayed lines as a reference.
The lines are highly 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 predictive course line
may not be displayed correctly. .
On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predictive course line and the actual
course line.
. If predictive 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 will appear slightly
off to the right because the RearView
camera is not installed in the rear center
of the vehicle.
. 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 than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed ob-
jects.
. When backing up the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When backing up the
vehicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear. Use
the inside mirror or glance over your
shoulder to properly judge distances to
other objects.
The vehicle width and predictive course
lines are wider than the actual width and
course.

tive course lines

parallel to the parking space*Cwhile referring to the predictive course lines.
5. When the vehicle is parked in the space completely, move the selector lever to
the P (Park) position and apply the
parking brake.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTIVE
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.

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.
SAA1900
Backing up on a steep downhill
When backing up the vehicle down a hill,
the distance guide lines and the vehicle
width guide lines are shown further 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 closer than it appears on the
monitor.

Backing up near a projecting object
The predictive course lines*Ado not
touch the object in the display. However,
the vehicle may hit the object if it projects
over the actual backing up course.

OPERATING TIPS
.When the selector lever is shifted to the
“ R ” (Reverse) position, the monitor
screen automatically changes to the
RearView monitor mode. However, the
radio can be heard.
. It may take some time until the Rear-
View 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 Rear-
View monitor screen is displayed com-
pletely.
. 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.
