When driving
Rear view monitor system
The rear view monitor assists the driver by displaying an image of
the area behind the vehicle while reversing. The image is displ ayed
in reverse on the screen. This reversed image is a similar imag e to
the one on the inside rear view mirror.
The rear view image will be
displayed on the rear view
monitor within a few seconds
after the shift lever is shifted to
R.
When the shift lever is shifted
to a position other than R, the
image will continue to be dis-
played for approximately 5
