REARVIEW MIRROR (if so equipped)
The night position1reduces glare from the
headlights of vehicles behind you at night.
Use the day position
2when driving in daylight
hours.
WARNING
Use the night position only when neces-
sary, because it reduces rear view clarity.
AUTOMATIC ANTI-GLARE
REARVIEW MIRROR (if so equipped)
The inside mirror is designed so that it automati-
cally dims during night time conditions and ac-
cording to the intensity of the headlights of the
vehicle following you. The automatic anti-glare
feature is activated when the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
The indicator light will illuminate when the auto-
matic anti-glare feature is operating.
NOTE:
Do not hang any objects over the sensors
1or apply glass cleaner to the sensors.
Doing so will reduce the sensitivity of the
sensors, resulting in improper operation.
Type A and Type B
The indicator light2will illuminate when the
automatic anti-glare feature is operating.
To turn off the automatic anti-glare feature, press:
● the O button for inside mirrors without
compass.
● the
button for inside mirrors with
compass.
The indicator light will turn off.

MIRRORS
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-35

When the shift lever is shifted into the R (Re-
verse) position, the monitor display shows the
view to the rear of the vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the driver in
detecting large stationary objects to help avoid
damaging the vehicle. The system will not detect
small objects below the bumper and may not
detect objects close to the bumper or on the
ground.
WARNING
●The rear view camera is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper back-
ing up. Always turn and check that it is
safe to do so before backing up. Always
back up slowly.
● Objects viewed in the RearView Moni-
tor differ from actual distance because
a wide-angle lens is used. Objects in the
RearView Monitor will appear visually
opposite than when viewed in the rear
view and outside mirrors.
● Make sure that the trunk is securely
closed when backing up.
● Underneath the bumper and the corner
areas of the bumper cannot be viewed
on the RearView Monitor because of its
monitoring range limitation. ●
Do not put anything on the rear view
camera.
● 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 wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock.
● Do not strike the camera. It is a preci-
sion instrument. Otherwise, it may mal-
function or cause damage resulting in a
fire or an electric shock.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the lens.HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED
LINES

distances to objects with reference to the vehicle

REARVIEW MONITOR (if so
equipped)
4-10Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

●When strong light directly enters the cam-
era, 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. This is not a malfunction.
● The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light. This is not a malfunction.
● The colors of objects on the RearView Moni-
tor may differ somewhat from those of the
actual object.
● When the contrast of objects is low at night,
pressing the SETTING button or MENU but-
ton may not change the brightness.
● Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark place or at night.
● If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera,
the RearView Monitor may not display ob-
jects. Clean the camera.
● Do not use body wax on the camera window.
If body wax does get on the camera window,
wipe off the wax with a clean cloth damp-
ened with mild detergent diluted with water. When the shift lever is shifted into the R (Re-
verse) position, the monitor display shows view to
the rear of the vehicle.
The system is designed as an aid to the driver in
detecting large stationary objects to help avoid
damaging the vehicle. The system will not detect
small objects below the bumber and may not
detect objects close to the bumper or on the
ground.
Available views:
● Rear View
An approximately 150–degree view of the
rear of the vehicle.
● Rear-Wide View
An approximately 180–degree view of the
rear of the vehicle.
WARNING
● The RearView Monitor is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper back-
ing up. Always turn and check that it is
safe to do so before backing up. Always
back up slowly. ●
Objects viewed in the RearView Moni-
tor differ from actual distance because
a wide-angle lens is used. Objects
viewed in the RearView Monitor appear
visually opposite, just like ones viewed
in the inside and outside rearview
mirrors.
● Make sure that the trunk is securely
closed when backing up.
● Underneath the bumper and the corner
areas of the bumper cannot be viewed
on the RearView Monitor because of its
monitoring range limitation.
● Do not put anything on the RearView
camera. The RearView camera is in-
stalled 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 wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock.
● Do not strike the camera. It is a preci-
sion instrument. Otherwise, it may mal-
function or cause damage resulting in a
fire or an electric shock.

HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED
COURSE LINES
WARNING
● Always turn and check that it is safe to
do so before backing up. Always back
up slowly.
●
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.
● If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course lines
may be displayed incorrectly.
● On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predicted course line and the actual
course line.
● If the battery is disconnected or be-
comes discharged, the predicted course
lines may be displayed incorrectly. If
this occurs, please perform the follow-
ing procedures:
– Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock while the engine is running. – Drive the vehicle on a straight road
for more than 5 minutes.
● When the steering wheel is turned with
the ignition switch in the ACC position,
the predicted course lines may be dis-
played incorrectly.
● The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a level
paved surface. The distance viewed on
the monitor is for reference only and
may be different than the actual dis-
tance between the vehicle and dis-
played objects.
● When backing up the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are fur-
ther than they appear. When backing up
the vehicle down a hill, objects viewed
in the monitor are closer than they ap-
pear. Use the inside mirror or glance
over your shoulder to properly judge
distances to other objects.
The vehicle width and predicted course
lines are wider than the actual width and
course.

WARNING
●Be sure the parking brake is fully re-
leased before driving. Failure to do so
can cause brake failure and lead to an
accident.
● Do not release the parking brake from
outside the vehicle.
● Do not use the shift lever in place of the
parking brake. When parking, be sure
the parking brake is fully engaged.
● Do not leave children unattended in a
vehicle. They could release the parking
brake and cause an accident. The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system helps
alert the driver of other vehicles in adjacent lanes
when changing lanes.
The Lane Departure Warning (LDW) system
helps alert the driver when the vehicle is traveling
close to either the left or the right of a traveling
lane.
The BSW/LDW systems use the rear view moni-
tor camera unit
1with automatic washer and
blower.
WARNING
● The BSW system is not a replacement
for proper driving procedure and is not
designed to prevent contact with ve-
hicles or objects. When changing lanes,
always use the side and rear mirrors
and turn and look in the direction you
will move to ensure it is safe to change
lanes. Never rely solely on the BSW
system.
