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. •
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.

MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
MOD. Failure to operate the vehicle in ac-
cordance with these system limitations
could result in serious injury or death.
• Do not use the MOD system when tow-
ing a trailer. The system may not func-
tion properly.
• Excessive noise (for example, audio sys-
tem volume or open vehicle window) will
interfere with the chime sound, and it
may not be heard. •
The MOD system performance will be
limited according to environmental con-
ditions and surrounding objects such as:
– When there is low contrast between
background and the moving objects.
– When there is a blinking source of
light.
– When strong light such as another
vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is
present.
– When camera orientation is not in its
usual position, such as when a mirror
is folded.
– When there is dirt, water drops or
snow on the camera lens.
– When the position of the moving ob-
jects in the display is not changed.
• The MOD system might detect flowing
water droplets on the camera lens, white
smoke from the muffler, moving shad-
ows, etc.
• The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, direc-
tion, distance or shape of the moving
objects.
