DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
PREDICTIVE AND ACTUAL
DISTANCESBacking up on a steep uphill
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the dis-
tance guide lines and the vehicle width guide
lines are shown closer than the actual distance.
For example, the display shows 3 ft (1.0 m) to the
place
A, but the actual 3 ft (1.0 m) distance on
the hill is the place
B. Note that any object on
the hill is further than it appears on the monitor.

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 farther than the actual distance.
For example, the display shows 3 ft (1.0 m) to the
place
A, but the actual 3 ft (1.0 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 predicted course linesAdo not touch the
object in the display. However, the vehicle may hit
the object if it projects over the actual backing up
course.

If the shift lever is not in the R (Reverse) position,
the available views are:● Front-view/bird’s-eye view split screen
● Front-view/front-side view split screen
● Front-wide view
If the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position, the
available views are: ● Rearview/bird’s-eye view split screen
● Rearview/front-side view split screen
● Rear-wide view
The display automatically changes to the Around
View Monitor displaying front-view/bird’s-eye
view when: ● The shift lever is in the D (Drive) position and
the sonar detects the vehicle is approaching
an object.
The display will switch from the Around View
Monitor screen when: ● When the shift lever is in the D (Drive) posi-
tion and the vehicle speed increases above
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h)
● When the sonar no longer detects an object
the screen will automatically switch back the
previously displayed screen.
● When a different screen is selected.
PARKING SENSOR (if so equipped)
REAR CENTER SONAR (if so
equipped)
The sonar (parking sensor) sounds a tone to
inform the driver of obstacles near the bumper.
WARNING
●The sonar (parking sensor) is a conve-
nience feature. It is not a substitute for
proper parking.
● The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 mph (10km/h) . It is reactivated
at lower speeds. ●
The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
● Always look around and check that it is
safe to move before parking.
● Read and understand the limitations of
the sonar (parking sensor) as contained
in this section.
● The colors of the sonar indicators and
the distance guide lines in the front,
front-wide, rear and rear-wide views in-
dicate different distances to the object.
● Inclement weather or ultrasonic
sources such as an automatic car wash,
a truck’s compressed-air brakes or a
pneumatic drill may affect the function
of the system; this may include reduced
performance or a false activation.
● This function is designed as an aid to
the driver in detecting large stationary
objects to help avoid damaging the
vehicle.
● The system is not designed to prevent
contact with small or moving objects.
● The system will not detect small objects
below the bumper, and may not detect
objects close to the bumper or on the
ground.
LHA2320
4-38Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

●The system may not detect the follow-
ing objects:
– Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth, cotton, glass or wool.
– Thin objects such as rope, wire or chain.
– Wedge-shaped objects.
● If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be altered
causing inaccurate measurement of ob-
jects or false alarms.
CAUTION
● Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not be
heard.
● Keep the surface of the sonar sensors
(located on the front and rear bumper
fascia) free from accumulations of
snow, ice and dirt. Do not scratch the
surface of the sonar sensors when
cleaning. If the sensors are covered, the
accuracy of the sonar function will be
diminished. The system gives the tone for front objects when
the shift lever is in the D (Drive) position and both
front and rear objects when the shift lever is in the
R (Reverse) position.
When the camera image is shown on the display,
the system shows the sonar indicator regardless
of the shift selector position.
The system is deactivated at speeds above
6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated at lower
speeds.
When the objects are detected, the indicator
(green) appears and blinks and the tone sounds
intermittently. When the vehicle moves closer to
the object, the color of the indicator turns yellow
and the rate of the blinking and the rate of the
tone increase. When the vehicle is very close to
the object, the indicator stops blinking and turns
red, and the tone sounds continuously.
The intermittent tone will stop after three seconds
when an object is detected by only the corner
sonar and the distance does not change.
The tone will stop when the object is no longer
near the vehicle.
When the key
1is selected, the indicator2will
turn off and the sonar will be turned off temporar-
ily. The MOD system will also be turned off at the
same time. When the key is selected again, the
indicator will turn on and the sonar will turn back
on.
In the below cases, the sonar will be turned back
on automatically:
● When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
● When the CAMERA button is pressed and a
screen other than the camera view is shown
on the display.
LHA2321
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-39

●When vehicle speed decreases below ap-
proximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
● When the ignition switch is placed in the
OFF position and turned back to the ON
position again.
To prevent the sonar system from activating alto-
gether, use the “Camera Settings” menu. For
more information, see “Around View® Monitor
settings” in this section.
MOVING OBJECT DETECTION
(MOD)
The Moving Object Detection (MOD) system can
inform the driver of the moving objects surround-
ing the vehicle when driving out of garages, ma-
neuvering into parking lots and in other such
instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the image
shown in the display. The MOD system operates in the following con-
ditions when the camera view is displayed:
● When the shift lever is in the P or N position
and the vehicle is stopped, the MOD system
detects the moving objects in the bird’s-eye
view. The MOD system will not operate if the
outside mirror is moving in or out or if either
door is opened.
● When the shift lever is in the D position and
the vehicle speed is below approximately
5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD system detects
moving objects in the front view or front-
wide view.
● When the shift lever is in the R position and
the vehicle speed is below approximately
5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD system detects
moving objects in the rearview or rear-wide
view. The MOD system will not operate if the
liftgate is open.
The MOD system does not detect moving ob-
jects in the front-side view. The MOD icon is not
displayed on the screen when in this view.
WARNING
● The MOD system is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation and is not de-
signed to prevent contact with the ob-
jects surrounding the vehicle. When
maneuvering, always use the outside
mirror and rear view mirror and turn and
check the surrounding to ensure it is
safe to maneuver.
● The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated
at lower speeds
● The system is not designed to prevent
contact with all objects.
● The MOD system does not have the
function to detect the surrounding sta-
tionary objects.
4-40Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

When the MOD system detects moving objects
surrounding the vehicle, the yellow frame will be
displayed on the view where the objects are
detected and a chime will sound once. While the
MOD system continues to detect moving ob-
jects, the yellow frame continues to be displayed.
In the bird’s-eye view, the yellow frame
1is
displayed on each camera image (front, rear,
right, left) depending on where moving objects
are detected.
The yellow frame
2is displayed on each view in
the front view, front-wide view, rear view and
rear-wide view modes. While the sonar or the BCI chime (if so equipped)
is beeping, the MOD system does not chime.
A blue MOD icon is displayed in the view where
the MOD system is operative. A gray MOD icon is
displayed in the view where the MOD system is
not operative.
When the “MOD” key
4is selected, the MOD
system will turn off temporarily and the indicator
5will turn off. At the same time the camera-
aiding sonar will also be turned OFF. When the
key is pressed again, the indicator will turn on and
the MOD system will turn back on.
If the MOD system is turned off, the MOD icon
3
is not displayed. The MOD system will turn on automatically under
the following conditions:
● When the shift lever is in the R position.
● When the CAMERA button is pressed to
switch from a different screen to the camera
view on the display
● When vehicle speed decreases below ap-
proximately 5 mph (8 km/h).
● When the ignition switch is placed in the
OFF position and then back to the ON posi-
tion.

To set the MOD system so that it remains off at all
times, use the camera settings menu. See
“Around View Monitor settings” in this section for
more information.
WARNING
●Do not use the MOD system when tow-
ing a trailer. The system may not func-
tion properly.
● Excessive noise (for example, audio
system 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 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 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
shadows, etc.
● The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, direc-
tion, distance or shape of the moving
objects.
● If your vehicle sustains damage to the
parts where the camera is installed,
leaving it misaligned or bent, the sens-
ing zone may be altered and the MOD
system may not detect objects properly.
● When the temperature is extremly high
or low, the screen may not display ob-
jects clearly. This is not a malfunction.
Camera maintenance
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the camera,
the MOD system may not operate properly. Clean
the camera.
