MANUAL ANTI-GLARE REARVIEW
MIRROR (if so equipped)
Use the night position1to reduce 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 au-
tomatically dims during night time condi-
tions and according 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 posi-
tion.
The indicator light
2will illuminate when
the automatic anti-glare feature is operat-
ing.
NOTE:
Do not hang any objects over the sen-
sors
1or apply glass cleaner to the sen-
sors. Doing so will reduce the sensitivity
of the sensors, resulting in improper op-
eration.

3-32Pre-driving checks and adjustments

∙ RearView Monitor is a conveniencefeature and 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 damaging the vehicle.
∙ The distance guide line and the ve- hicle 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 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 shif t lever is shif ted into the R (Reverse)
position. The radio can still be heard while
the RearView monitor is active. To display the rear view, the RearView Moni-
tor system uses a camera located just
above the vehicle’s license plate
1.
REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
OPERATION
With the ignition switch in the ON position,
move the shif t lever to the R (Reverse) po-
sition to operate the RearView Monitor.
HOW TO READ THE DISPLAYED

width and distances to objects with refer-
ence to the vehicle body line
Aare dis-
played on the monitor.
Distance guide lines
Indicate distances from the vehicle body.
∙ Red line

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 seri-
ous injury or death.
∙ The system cannot completely elimi-nate blind spots and may not show
every object.
∙ Underneath the bumper and the cor- ner areas of the bumper cannot be
viewed on the RearView Monitor be-
cause of its monitoring range limita-
tion. 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 Moni- tor differ from actual distance be-
cause a wide-angle lens is used.
∙ Objects in the RearView Monitor will appear visually opposite compared to
when viewed in the rearview and out-
side mirrors. ∙ Use the displayed lines as a reference.
The lines are highly affected by the
number of occupants, fuel level, ve-
hicle position, road conditions and
road grade.
∙ Make sure that the trunk is securely closed when backing up.
∙ 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
water condensation on the lens, a
malfunction, fire or an electric shock.
∙ Do not strike the camera. It is a preci- sion instrument. Otherwise, it may
malfunction or cause damage result-
ing in a fire or an electric shock.
The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction: ∙ When the temperature is extremely high or low, the screen may not clearly
display objects. ∙ When strong light directly shines on the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
∙ Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the screen. This is due to strong re-
flected 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.
∙ There may be a delay when switching between views.
∙ If dirt, rain or snow accumulate on the camera, the RearView Monitor may not
display objects clearly. Clean the cam-
era.
∙ Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth
dampened with a diluted mild cleaning
agent, then wipe with a dry cloth.
