WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the RearView
Monitor system could result in serious
injury or death.
•
RearView Monitor is a convenience fea-
ture 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 ob-
jects directly behind the vehicle, to
help avoid damaging 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
surface. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance be-
tween 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 automatically
shows a rear view of the vehicle when the shift
lever is shifted into the R (Reverse) position or
when the CAMERA button (if so equipped) is
pressed. The radio can still be heard while the
RearView Monitor is active.
To display the rear view, the RearView Monitor
system uses a camera located just above the
vehicle’s license plate
1.
REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
OPERATION

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 rear hatch is se- curely 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 power 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.

Available views
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:
Guiding lines that indicate the approximate ve-
hicle width and distance to objects with refer-
ence to the vehicle body lines
Aare displayed
on the monitor.
