How to park with predictive course lines
.Do not use the Around View ŠMoni-
tor with the outside mirrors in the
stored position, and make sure that
the liftgate is securely closed when
operating the vehicle using the
Around View
ŠMonitor.
. The apparent distance between ob-
jects viewed on the Around View
Š
Monitor differs from the actual dis-
tance.
. The cameras are installed on the
front grille, the outside mirrors and
above the rear license plate. Do not
put anything on the vehicle that
covers the cameras.
. When washing the vehicle with high
pressure water, be sure not to spray
it around the cameras. Otherwise,
water may enter the camera unit
causing water condensation on the
lens, a malfunction, fire or an elec-
tric shock.
. Do not strike the cameras. They are
precision instruments. Doing so
could cause a malfunction or cause
damage resulting in a fire or an
electric shock. The following are operating limitations and do
not represent a system malfunction:

between each camera view of the bird’s-
eye view. .
