●When washing the vehicle with high
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the camera. 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 camera. It is a preci-
sion instrument. Otherwise, it may mal-
function or cause damage resulting in a
fire or an electric shock.
The following are operating limitations and do not
represent a system malfunction: ● When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display ob-
jects.
● When strong light directly shines on the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
● Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the
screen. This is due to strong reflected light
from the bumper.
● The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light.
● The colors of objects on the RearView Moni-
tor may differ somewhat from the actual
color of objects. ●
Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark environment.
● There may be a delay when switching be-
tween views.
● If dirt, rain or snow accumulate on the cam-
era, the RearView Monitor may not display
objects clearly. Clean the camera.
● Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe off
any wax with a clean cloth dampened with a
diluted mild cleaning agent, then wipe with a
dry cloth.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
●Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner
to clean the camera. This will cause
discoloration.
● Do not damage the camera as the moni-
tor screen may be adversely affected.
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the camera
1, the RearView Monitor may not display ob-
jects clearly. Clean the camera by wiping it with a
cloth dampened with a diluted mild cleaning
agent and then wiping it with a dry cloth.

this item is turned ON, the camera view is auto-
matically shown on the display in the case that
the distance to the objects measured by the
sonar is becoming short.
Sonar Sensitivity: Adjust the sensitivity level of
the sonar higher (right) or lower (left) .
SONAR SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for
the sonar function. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these system
limitations could result in serious injury or
death.
● Inclement weather or ultrasonic
sources such as an automatic car wash,
a trucks’s compressed-air brakes or a
pneumatic drill may affect the function
of the system, including reduced perfor-
mance or a false activation.
● The system is not designed to prevent
contact with small or moving objects.
● The system will not detect small objects
below the bumper, and may not detect
objects close to the bumper or on the
ground.
● The system may not detect the follow-
ing objects:
– Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth, cotton, grass or wool.
– Thin objects such as rope, wire or chain.
– Wedge-shaped objects. ●
If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or
bent, the sensing zone may be altered
causing inaccurate measurement of ob-
jects or false alarms.
CAUTION
Excessive noise (such as audio system vol-
ume or an open vehicle window) will inter-
fere with the tone and it may not be heard.
System temporarily unavailable
When the amber markers are displayed at the
corners of the vehicle icon and the function can-
not be activated from the Camera setting menu
(the setting items are grayed out) , the sonar
system may be malfunctioning.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Keep the surface of the sonar sensors
(located on the front and rear bumper fas-
cia) free from accumulations of snow, ice
and dirt. Do not scratch the surface of the
sonar sensors when cleaning. If the sen-
sors are covered, the accuracy of the sonar
function will be diminished.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-41

●Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume or open vehicle window)
will interfere with the chime sound, and
it may not be heard.
● The MOD system performance will be
limited according to environmental con-
ditions and surrounding objects such
as:
– When there is low contrast between background and the moving objects.
– When there is a blinking source of light.
– When strong light such as another vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is
present.
– When camera orientation is not in its usual position, such as when a mirror
is folded.
– When there is dirt, water drops or snow on the camera lens.
– When the position of the moving ob- jects in the display is not changed.
● The MOD system might detect flowing
water droplets on the camera lens,
white smoke from the muffler, moving
shadows, etc. ●
The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, direc-
tion, distance or shape of the moving
objects.
● If your vehicle sustains damage to the
parts where the camera is installed,
leaving it misaligned or bent, the sens-
ing zone may be altered and the MOD
system may not detect objects properly.
● When the temperature is extremely
high or low, the screen may not display
objects clearly. This is not a
malfunction.
NOTE:
The blue MOD icon will change to orange if
one of the following has occurred ● When the system is malfunctioning.
● When the component temperature reaches
a high level (icon will blink) .
● When the Rear View camera has detected a
blockage (icon will blink) . :
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
●Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner
