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.

4-16Heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems
objects viewed in the monitor are
closer than they appear.
.Objects in the monitor will appear
visually opposite compared to when
viewed in the rearview and outside
mirrors.
.Use the mirrors or actually look to
properly judge distances to other
objects.
.The distance between objects
viewed in the rear view differs from
actual distance because a wide-
angle lens is used.
.On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predictive course line and the
actual course line.
.The vehicle width and predictive
course lines are wider than the
actual width and course.
.The displayed lines on the rear view
will appear slightly off to the right
because the rear view camera is not
installed in the rear center of the
vehicle.
