SONAR SYSTEM LIMITATIONS

WARNING
●Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Moving
Object Detection system could result in
serious injury or death.
● The MOD system is not a substitute for
proper vehicle operation and is not de-
signed to prevent contact with objects
surrounding the vehicle. When maneu-
vering, always use the outside mirrors
and rearview mirror and turn and check
the surroundings to ensure it is safe to
maneuver.
● The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated
at lower speeds.
● The MOD system is not designed to
detect surrounding stationary objects.
The MOD system can inform the driver of moving
objects near the vehicle when backing out of
garages, maneuvering in parking lots and in other
such instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the image
shown in the display.
MOD SYSTEM OPERATION
The MOD system will turn on automatically under
the following conditions: ● When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
● When the CAMERA button is pressed to
activate the camera view on the display.
● When vehicle speed decreases below ap-
proximately 6 mph (10 km/h) and the camera
screen is displayed.
The MOD system operates in the following con-
ditions when the camera view is displayed:● When the shift lever is in the P (Park) or N
(Neutral) position and the vehicle is stopped,
the MOD system detects moving objects in
the bird’s-eye view. The MOD system will
not operate if the outside mirrors are moving
in or out, in the stowed position, or if either
front door is opened.
● When the shift lever is in the D (Drive) posi-
tion and the vehicle speed is below approxi-
mately 6 mph (10 km/h), the MOD system
detects moving objects in the front view.

●When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position and the vehicle speed is below ap-
proximately 6 mph (10 km/h), the MOD sys-
tem detects moving objects in the rear view.
The MOD system will not operate if the
liftgate is open.
The MOD system does not detect moving ob-
jects in the front-side view. The MOD icon is not
displayed on the screen when in this view.
When the MOD system detects moving objects
near the vehicle, a yellow frame will be displayed
on the view where the objects are detected. While the MOD system continues to detect mov-
ing objects, the yellow frame continues to be
displayed.
NOTE:
While the RCTA chime (if so equipped) is
beeping, the MOD system does not chime.
In the bird’s-eye view, the yellow frame
1is
displayed on each camera image (front, rear,
right, left) depending on where moving objects
are detected.
The yellow frame
2is displayed on each view in
the front view and rear view modes. A blue MOD icon
3is displayed in the view
where the MOD system is operative. A gray MOD
icon is displayed in the view where the MOD
system is not operative.
If the MOD system is turned off, the MOD icon
3
is not displayed.

MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS

●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.
