WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the
RearView Monitor system could re-
sult in serious injury or death.
.The RearView Monitor is a conve-
nience but it is not a substitute
for proper backing. Always turn
and look out the windows, and
check mirrors to be sure that it is
safe to move before operating
the vehicle. Always back up
slowly.
. The system is designed as an aid
to the driver in showing large
stationary objects directly behind
the vehicle, to help avoid dama-
ging the vehicle.
. The distance guide line and the
vehicle width line should be used
as a reference only when the
vehicle is on a level paved sur-
face. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and
may be different than the actual
distance between the vehicle and
displayed objects.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the front
of the camera.
The RearView Monitor system automati-
cally shows a rear view of the vehicle
when the shift lever is placed in the R
(Reverse) position.
The radio can still be heard while the
RearView Monitor is active.
JVH1353X
To display the rear view, the RearView
Monitor system uses a camera located
just above the vehicle’s license plate
.
REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM OP-
ERATION
With the ignition switch in the ON posi-
tion, move the shift lever to the R
(Reverse) position to operate the Rear-
View Monitor.

HOW TO READ DISPLAYED LINES
Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle
width and distances to objects with
reference to the bumper line
are
displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the bumper.
. Red line
: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
. Yellow line
: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
. Green line
: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
. Green line
: approx. 10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines
:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing
up.
Predictive course lines
: Indicate the predictive course when back-
ing up. The predictive course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when the shift
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.
The vehicle width guide lines and the
width of the predictive course lines are
wider than the actual width and course.
HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTIVE
COURSE LINES
WARNING
.
If the tires are replaced with
different sized tires, the predic-
tive course line may not be dis-
played correctly.
. On a snow-covered or slippery
road, there may be a difference
between the predictive course
line and the actual course line.
. The displayed lines will appear
slightly off to the right because
the rear view camera is not in-
stalled in the rear center of the
vehicle.
SAA1897
1. Visually check that the parking space
is safe before parking your vehicle.
2. The rear view of the vehicle is dis- played on the screen

3. Slowly back up the vehicle adjustingthe steering wheel so that the pre-
dictive course lines
enter the park-
ing space.
4. Maneuver the steering wheel to make the vehicle width guide lines
parallel
to the parking spacewhile referring
to the predictive course lines. 5. When the vehicle is parked in the
space completely, move the shift lever
to the P (Park) position (Automatic
Transmission models) or in an appro-
priate gear (Manual Transmission
models) and apply the parking brake.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTIVE
AND ACTUAL DISTANCES
The displayed guide lines and their loca-
tions on the ground are for approximate
reference only. Objects on uphill or down-
hill surfaces or projecting objects will be
actually located at distances different
from those displayed in the monitor
relative to the guide lines (refer to illustra-
tions). When in doubt, turn around and
view the objects as you are backing up, or
park and exit the vehicle to view the
positioning of objects behind the vehicle.
JVH1355X
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. Note that any object on
the hill is further than it appears on the
monitor.

JVH1356X
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. Note that any object
on the hill is closer than it appears on the
monitor.
SAA1923
Backing up near a projecting object
The predictive course linesdo not
touch the object in the display. However,
the vehicle may hit the object if it projects
over the actual backing up course.
SAA1924
Backing up behind a projecting
object
The positionis shown further than the
positionin the display. However, the
positionis actually at the same dis-
tance as the position. The vehicle may
hit the object when backing up to the

REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM LIM-
ITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions 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 can-
not 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 ob-
jects close to the bumper or on
the ground.
. Objects viewed in the RearView
Monitor differ from actual dis-
tance because a wide-angle lens
is used.
. Objects in the RearView Monitor
will appear visually opposite
compared to when viewed in the
rear view and outside mirrors.

.Use the displayed lines as a re-
ference. The lines are highly af-
fected by the number of
occupants, fuel level, vehicle po-
sition, road conditions and road
grade.
. Make sure that the trunk lid or
rear hatch is securely closed
when backing up.
. Do not put anything on the rear
view camera. The rear view cam-
era 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 con-
densation on the lens, a malfunc-
tion, fire or an electric shock.
. Do not strike the camera. It is a
precision instrument. Otherwise,
it may malfunction or cause da-
mage resulting in a fire or an
electric shock.
The following are operating limitations
and do not represent a system malfunc-
tion:
. When the temperature is extremely
high or low, the screen may not clearly display objects.
. When strong light is directly coming
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 fluores-
cent light.
. The colors of objects on the RearView
Monitor may differ somewhat from
the actual color of objects.
. Objects on the monitor may not be
clear in a dark environment.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on
the camera, the RearView Monitor
may not display objects clearly. Clean
the camera.
. Do not use wax on the camera win-
dow. Wipe off any wax with a clean
cloth dampened with mild detergent
diluted with water.

WARNING
.The air conditioner cooling func-
tion operates only when the en-
gine is running.
. Do not leave children or adults
who would normally require the
support of others alone in your
vehicle. Pets should not be left
alone either. On hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle
could quickly become high en-
ough to cause severe or possibly
fatal injuries to people or animals.
. Do not use the recirculation mode
for long periods as it may cause
the interior air to become stale
and the windows to fog up.
Start the engine and operate the heater
and air conditioner system.
NOTE:
. Odors from inside and outside the
vehicle can build up in the air condi-
tioner unit. Odor can enter the pas-
senger compartment through the
vents.
. When parking, set the heater and air
conditioner controls to turn off air
recirculation to allow fresh air into the passenger compartment. This
should help reduce odors inside the
vehicle.
