REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for RearView Monitor. Failure to oper-
ate 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 corner areas of the bumper cannot be viewed
on the RearView Monitor because of
its monitoring range limitation. The
system will not show small objects be-
low 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 because
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 liftgate is securely closed when backing up.
• Do not put anything on the rearview camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled above the license plate.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Around
View® Monitor system could result in
serious injury or death.
• The Around View® Monitor is a conve- nience 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 appear 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 ma-
neuvers.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the camera lens when
cleaning dirt or snow from the front of the
camera. The Around View® Monitor system 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. Not all views are available at
all times.
Available views:
• Front View
An approximately 150–degree view of the
front of the vehicle.
• Rear View An approximately 150–degree view of the rear
of the vehicle.
• Bird’s-Eye View The surrounding views of the vehicle from
above.
• Front-Side View The view around and ahead of the front pas-
senger’s side wheel. To display the multiple views, the Around View®
Monitor system uses cameras located in the front
grille, on the vehicle’s outside mirrors and one
just above the vehicle’s license plates
1.
AROUND VIEW® MONITOR
SYSTEM OPERATION
With the ignition switch in the ON position, move
the shift lever to the R (Reverse) position or press
the CAMERA button to operate the Around
View® Monitor. The screen displayed on the
Around View® Monitor will automatically return
to the previous screen 3 minutes after the CAM-
ERA button has been pressed with the shift lever
in a position other than the R (Reverse) position.

WARNING
• The distance guide lines and the ve- hicle width lines should be used as a
reference only when the vehicle is on a
paved, level surface. The apparent dis-
tance viewed on the monitor may be
different than the actual distance be-
tween the vehicle and displayed ob-
jects.
• 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 number of occupants, cargo,
fuel level, vehicle position, road condi-
tion and road grade.
• If the tires are replaced with different sized tires, the predicted course lines
and the bird’s-eye view may be dis-
played incorrectly.
• When driving the vehicle up a hill, ob- jects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When driving the ve-
hicle down a hill, objects viewed in the
monitor are closer than they appear. • Objects in the rear view will appear
visually opposite compared to when
viewed in the rear view and outside
mirrors.
• Use the mirrors or actually look to properly judge distances to other ob-
jects.
• On a snow-covered or slippery road, there may be a difference between the
predicted course lines and the actual
course line.
• The vehicle width and predicted course lines are wider than the actual width
and course.
• The displayed lines will appear slightly off to the right, because the rearview
camera is not installed in the rear cen-
ter of the vehicle.
Front and rear view:

hicle width and distance to objects with refer-

The driver can check the approximate direction
and angle of the tire on the display by the tire icon
3when driving the vehicle forward or backward.
WARNING
• Objects in the bird’s-eye view will ap- pear 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 camera 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 mis- aligned and is not seen as being
straight at the seam of the views. The
misalignment will increase as the line
proceeds away from the vehicle.
• Tire angle display does not indicate the actual tire angle.
Front-side view:
Guiding lines
Guiding lines that indicate the approximate width
and the front end of the vehicle are displayed on
the monitor.
The front-of-vehicle line

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
PREDICTED AND ACTUAL
DISTANCES
The displayed guidelines and their locations on
the ground are for approximate reference only.
Objects on uphill or downhill surfaces or project-
ing objects will be actually located at distances
different from those displayed in the monitor rela-
tive to the guidelines (refer to illustrations) . When
in doubt, turn around and view the objects as you
are backing up, or park and exit the vehicle to
view the positioning of objects behind the ve-
hicle.

SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for Around View® Monitor. Failure to op-
erate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations could result in
serious injury or death.
•
Do not use the Around View® Monitor
with the outside mirrors in the stored
position, and make sure that the trunk is
securely closed when operating the ve-
hicle using the Around View® Monitor.
•The apparent distance between objects
viewed on the Around View® Monitor
differs from the actual distance.
• The cameras are installed on the front grille, the outside mirrors and above
the rear license plate. Do not put any-
thing 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 wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric 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.
