CAUTION It is possible to retract and extend the mirrors by hand. After retracti
ng a mirror using the
mirror retractor switch, however, you shouldextend it by using the switch again, not by hand. If you extended the mirror by hand after retracting it using
the switch, it would
not properly lock in pos

approximately 5 mph (18 km/h) or higher.
• If the sensor detection area is blocked by a nearby object, such as
wall or parked vehi-
cle.• When a vehicle is approaching fromstraight behind your vehicle.• When your vehicle is exiting from anangled parking spot.• Immediately after the RCTA has been turned on.• Immediately after the operation mode hasbeen put in ON.• When the bumper surface around the sensoris covered with dirt
, snow and ice, etc.
• When the sensor becomes extremely hot or cold, such as after the vehicle has been parked for a prolonged time under the blaz-ing sun or in cold weather.

CAUTION The rear-view camera uses a wide-angle lens. As a result, imag
es and distances shown
on the screen are not exact. Actual distance may be different from dis- tance indicated by the
lines on the screen,
depending on the loadi
ng condition of the
vehicle and road surface condition. The reference lines for
distance and vehicle
width are based on a level, flat road surface. In the following cases, objects shown on the screen will appear to
be farther off than they
actually are.• When the rear of th
e vehicle is weighed
down with the weight of passengers and luggage in the vehicle. (Case 1)• When there is an upward slope at the back.(Case2)
Case 1 A- Actual objects B- Objects shown on the screen
CAUTION The reference lines for
distance and vehicle
width are intended to i
ndicate the distance to
a flat object such as a level, flat road surface. They may not indicate correct distance depending on the shape of an obstacle.For example, when there is an object behind the vehicle that has u
pper sections projecting
in the direction of the
vehicle, the reference
lines on the screen will indicate that point A is the farthest point a
nd point B is the closest
point to the vehicle. In
reality, point A and B
are actually the same distance from the vehi- cle, and point C is fa
rther off than point A
and B.Case 2 A- Actual objects B- Objects shown on the screen

ances, it may become
difficult to see an image on the screen, evenwhen the system is functioning correctly. • In a dark area, such as at night. • When water drops or condensation are on the lens. • When sun light or he
adlights shine directly
