ADJUSTING THE SCREEN
To adjust the quality of the screen, refer to HOW
TO USE THE“SETTING”BUTTON in this sec-
tion.
cWhen it is difficult to see in the rearward
direction due to shady conditions, press the
“ENTER”button to make objects in the
monitor brighter.
cTo change the brightness, press the“EN-
TER”button again, turn the key switch OFF
or shift to reverse and wait for 10 seconds.
OPERATING TIPS
cWhen the selector lever is shifted to R, the
monitor screen automatically changes to the
rear view monitor mode. However, the radio
can be heard.
cIt may take some time until the rear view
monitor is displayed after the selector lever
has been shifted to R. Objects may be dis-
torted momentarily until the rear view moni-
tor screen is displayed completely. When
the selector lever is returned to a position
other than R, it may take some time until the
screen changes. Objects on the screen may
be distorted until they are completely dis-
played.cWhen the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display ob-
jects. This is not a malfunction.
cWhen strong light directly enters the cam-
era, objects may not be displayed clearly.
cVertical lines may be seen in objects on the
screen. This is due to strong reflected light
from the bumper. This is not a malfunction.
cThe screen may flicker under fluorescent
light. This is not a malfunction.
cThe colors of objects on the rear view moni-
tor may differ somewhat from those of the
actual object.
cWhen the contrast of objects is low at night,
pushing the“ENTER”button may not
change the brightness.
cObjects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark place or at night.
cIf dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera,
the rear view monitor may not display ob-
jects. Clean the camera.
cDo not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to
clean the camera. This will cause discolora-
tion. To clean the camera, wipe with a cloth
dampened with a diluted mild cleaning agent
and then wipe with a dry cloth.cDo not damage the camera as the monitor
screen may be adversely affected.
cDo not use body wax on the camera window.
Wipe off the wax with a clean cloth damp-
ened with mild detergent diluted with water.
