REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
RearView Monitor. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death.
• The system cannot completely eliminate
blind spots and may not show every
object.
• Underneath the bumper and the corner
areas of the bumper cannot be viewed on
the RearView Monitor because of its
monitoring range limitation. The system
will not show small objects below the
bumper, and may not show objects close
to the bumper or on the ground.
• Objects viewed in the RearView Monitor
differ from actual distance because a
wide-angle lens is used.
LHA5228
4-8Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

•Objects in the RearView Monitor will ap-
pear visually opposite compared to when
viewed in the rearview and outside
mirrors.
• Use the displayed lines as a reference.
The lines are highly affected by the num-
ber of occupants, fuel level, vehicle posi-
tion, road conditions and road grade.
• Make sure that the liftgate is securely
closed when backing up.
• Do not put anything on the rearview
camera. The rearview camera is installed
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. The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:
• When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display
objects.
• When strong light directly shines on the camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
• Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the screen. This is due to strong reflected light
from the bumper.
• The screen may flicker under fluorescent light.
• The colors of objects on the RearView Monitor may differ somewhat from the ac-
tual color of objects.
• Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a dark environment.
• There may be a delay when switching be- tween views.
• If dirt, rain or snow accumulate on the cam- era, the RearView Monitor may not display
objects clearly. Clean the camera.
• Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth dampened
with a diluted mild cleaning agent, then
wipe with a dry cloth.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
• Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to
clean the camera. This will cause
discoloration.
• Do not damage the camera as the moni-
tor screen may be adversely affected.
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the cam-
era
O1, the RearView Monitor may not dis-
play objects clearly. Clean the camera by wip-
ing it with a cloth dampened with a diluted
mild cleaning agent and then wiping it with a
dry cloth.

WARNING
• Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for the proper use of the
Around View® Monitor system could re-
sult in serious injury or death.
• The Around View® Monitor is a conve-
nience feature and is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation because it has
areas where objects cannot be viewed.
The four corners of the vehicle in particu-
lar, are areas where objects do not al-
ways appear in the bird’s-eye, front, or
rear views. Always check your surround-
ings to be sure that it is safe to move
before operating the vehicle. Always op-
erate the vehicle slowly.
• The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when clean-
ing dirt or snow from the front of the
camera. The Around View® Monitor system is de-
signed as an aid to the driver in situations
such as slot parking or parallel parking.
The monitor displays various views of the
position of the vehicle in a split screen format.
Not all views are available at all times.
Available views:
• Front View
An approximately 150–degree view of the
front of the vehicle.
• Rear View An approximately 150–degree view of the
rear of the vehicle.
• Bird's-Eye View The surrounding views of the vehicle from
above.
• Front-Side View The view around and ahead of the front
passenger's side wheel.
• Front-Wide View An approximately 180–degree view of the
front the vehicle.
• Rear-Wide View An approximately 180–degree view of the
rear of the vehicle. To display the multiple views, the Around
View® Monitor system uses cameras located
in the front grille, on the vehicle’s outside
mirrors and one just above the vehicle’s li-
cense plate
O1.

WARNING
• The distance guide lines and the vehicle
width lines should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a paved, level
surface. The apparent distance viewed
on the monitor may be different than the
actual distance between the vehicle and
displayed objects.
• Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-
eye view as a reference. The lines and the
bird’s-eye view are greatly affected by
the number of occupants, cargo, fuel
level, vehicle position, road condition
and road grade.
• If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course lines and
the bird's-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.
• Objects in the rear view will appear visu-
ally opposite compared to when viewed
in the monitor and outside mirrors.
• Use the mirrors or actually look to prop-
erly judge distances to other objects.
• On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predicted course lines and the actual
course line.
• The vehicle width and predicted course
lines are wider than the actual width and
course.
• The displayed lines will appear slightly
off to the right, because the rearview
camera is not installed in the rear center
of the vehicle.

less from the neutral position, the two green
predicted course lines are shown in front of
the vehicle.
When the steering wheel turns about 90 de-
grees or more, one green predicted course
line is shown in front of the vehicle and the
other predicted course line is shown at the
side of the vehicle.
When the monitor displays the rear view, the
predicted course lines are shown at the back
of the vehicle.
WARNING
• Objects in the bird's-eye view will appear
further than the actual distance.
• Tall objects, such as a curb or vehicle,
may be misaligned or not displayed at
the seam of the views.
• Objects that are above the camera can-
not be displayed.
• The view of the bird's-eye view may be
misaligned when the camera position
alters. •
