WARNING
.Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the
RearView Monitor could result in
serious injury or death.
.RearView Monitor is a convenience
feature 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 station-
ary objects directly behind the vehi-
cle, 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
between 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 placed in the R (Reverse) position.
The radio can still be heard while the RearView
Monitor is active.

REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM LIM-
ITATIONS
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 ser-
ious injury or death.
.The system cannot completely elim-
inate 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 below the bumper,
and may not show objects close to
the bumper or on the ground.
.Objects viewed in the RearView
Monitor differ from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens is used.
.Objects in the RearView Monitor
will appear visually opposite com-
pared to when viewed in the rear-view and outside mirrors.
.Use the displayed lines as a refer-
ence. The lines are highly affected
by the number of occupants, fuel
level, vehicle position, road condi-
tions and road grade.
.Make sure that the liftgate is se-
curely closed when backing up.
.Do not put anything on the rearview
camera. The rearview camera is
installed above the license plate.
.When washing the vehicle with
high-pressure water, be sure not to
spray it around the camera. Other-
wise, water may enter the camera
unit causing water condensation on
the lens, a malfunction, fire or an
electric shock.
.Do not strike the camera. It is a
precision instrument. Otherwise, it
may malfunction 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 displayobjects.
.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
Monitor 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
between views.
.If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the
camera, the RearView Monitor may not
display objects clearly. Clean the camera.
.Do not use wax on the camera window.
Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth
dampened with mild detergent diluted with
water.

WARNING
.Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for the proper use ofthe Around View
ŠMonitor system
could result in serious injury or
death.
.The Around View
ŠMonitor is a
convenience feature and is not a
substitute for proper vehicle opera-tion 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. Always look out the win-
dows and check mirrors to be sure
that it is safe to move.
.The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.
CAUTION
Do not scratch the lens when cleaning
dirt or snow from the front of the
camera.
The Around View
ŠMonitor 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.
All views are not available at all times.

.The distance guide lines and the
vehicle width lines should be used
as a reference only when the vehicle
is on a paved, level surface. The
distance viewed on the monitor is
for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed
objects.
.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, fuel level, vehicle posi-
tion, road condition and road grade.
.If the tires are replaced with differ-
ent sized tires, the predictive course
lines and the bird’s-eye view may be
displayed incorrectly.
.When driving the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are
farther than they appear. When

indicated in black.
After the ignition switch is placed in the ACC or
ON position, the non-viewable area
*2is
highlighted in yellow for a few seconds afterthe bird’s-eye view is displayed.
In addition, the non-viewable corners are dis-
played in red (blinking for the first few seconds)
*3to remind the driver to be cautious.

appear farther than the actual dis-
tance.
.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.

WARNING
.Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of theMoving Object Detection system
could result in serious injury or
death.
.The MOD system is not a substitute
for proper vehicle operation and is
not designed to prevent contactwith objects surrounding the vehi-
cle. When maneuvering, always use
the outside mirror and rearview
mirror and turn and check the sur-
roundings to ensure it is safe to
maneuver.
.The system is deactivated at speeds
above 5 MPH (8 km/h) . It is reacti-
vated at lower speeds.
.The MOD system is not designed to
detect the surrounding stationary
objects.
The MOD system can inform the driver of
moving objects near the vehicle when driving
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

MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for MOD. Failure to operate the vehicle
in accordance with these system limita-
tions could result in serious injury or
death.
.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 environmen-
tal conditions and surrounding ob-
jects such as:
— When there is low contrast be-
tween background and the mov-
ing objects.
— When there is blinking source of
light.— When strong light such as an-
other vehicle’s headlight or sun-
light is present.
— When camera orientation is not
in its usual position, such as
when the outside mirror is
folded.
— When there is dirt, water drops
or snow on the camera lens.
— When the position of the moving
objects in the display is not
changed.
.The MOD system might detect flow-
ing 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,
direction, 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 sensing zone may be
altered and the MOD system may
not detect objects properly.
