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.

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.
JVH1216X
Backing up behind a projecting
object
The positionis shown farther 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 position
if the object projects over the
actual backing up 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 rearview camera is not in-
stalled in the rear center of the
vehicle.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for the proper use of the
Intelligent Around View Monitor sys-
tem could result in serious injury or
death.
.The Intelligent Around View Moni-
tor is a convenience feature and
is not a substitute for proper
vehicle operation because it has
areas where objects cannot be
viewed. The four corners of the
vehicle in particular, are areas
where objects do not always ap-
pear in the bird’s-eye, front, or
rear views. Always check your
surroundings to be sure that it is
safe to move before operating
the vehicle. Always operate the
vehicle slowly.
. The driver is always responsible
for safety during parking and
other maneuvers.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the lens when clean-
ing dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.
The Intelligent Around View Monitor sys-
tem is designed as an aid to the driver in
situations such as slot parking or parallel
parking.
The monitor displays various views of the
position of the vehicle in a split screen
format. All views are not available at all
times.

INTELLIGENT AROUND VIEW MONI-
TOR SYSTEM OPERATION
With the ignition switch in the ON posi-
tion, move the shift lever to the R
(Reverse) position or press the CAMERA
button to operate the Intelligent Around
View Monitor.
Available views
WARNING
. The distance guide lines and the
vehicle width lines should be
used as a reference only when
the vehicle is on a paved, level
surface. The apparent distance
viewed on the monitor may be
different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and dis-
played objects.
. Use the displayed lines and the
bird’s-eye view as a reference.
The lines and the bird’s-eye view
are greatly affected by the num-
ber of occupants, fuel level, vehi-
cle position, road condition and
road grade.
. If the tires are replaced with
different sized tires, the predic-
tive course lines and the bird’s-
eye view may be displayed incor-
rectly.
. When driving the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are
further than they appear. When
driving the vehicle down a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are
closer than they appear. .
Objects in the monitor will appear
visually opposite compared to
when viewed in the rearview and
outside mirrors.
. Use the mirrors or actually look to
properly judge distances to other
objects.
. The distance between objects
viewed in the rear view differs
from actual distance because a
wide-angle lens is used.
. On a snow-covered or slippery
road, there may be a difference
between the predictive course
line and the actual course line.
. The vehicle width and predictive
course lines are wider than the
actual width and course.
. The displayed lines on the rear
view will appear slightly off to the
right because the rearview cam-
era is not installed in the rear
center of the vehicle.

Bird’s-eye view:
The bird’s-eye view shows the overhead
view of the vehicle, which helps confirm
the vehicle position and the predictive
course to a parking space.
The vehicle icon
shows the position of
the vehicle. Note that the size of the
vehicle icon on the bird’s-eye view may
differ somewhat from the actual distance
to the vehicle.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
are indicated in black.
The non-viewable area
is highlighted in
yellow for several seconds after the bird’s-
eye view is displayed. It will be shown only
the first time after the ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
Predictive course lines (
and) indicate
the predictive course when operating the
vehicle. The predictive course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when the steer-
ing 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 straight-ahead position.
When the monitor displays the front view
and the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or less from the straight-ahead
position, the two green predictive course
lines
are shown in front of the vehicle.
When the steering wheel turns about 90
degrees or more, one green predictive
course line
is shown in front of the
vehicle and the other green predictive
course line
is shown at side of the
vehicle.
When the monitor displays the rear view,
the predictive course lines are shown at
back of the vehicle.
WARNING
. Objects in the bird’s-eye view will
appear further than the actual
distance. .
Tall objects, such as a curb or
vehicle, may be misaligned or not
displayed at the seam of the
views.
. Objects that are above the cam-
era cannot be displayed.
. The view for the bird’s-eye view
may be misaligned when the
camera position alters.
. A line on the ground may be
misaligned and is not seen as
being straight at the seam of the
views. The misalignment will in-
crease as the line proceeds away
from the vehicle.
