INFORMATION
●The  screen  illustrations  used  in  this  text
are  intended  as  examples,  and  may  dif-
fer  from  the  image  that  is  actually  dis-
played on the screen.
DRIVING PRECAUTIONS
The  panoramic  view  monitor  is  a  sup-
plemental device intended to assist the
driver when checking around the vehi-
cle.  When  using,  be  sure  to  visually
check  all  around  the  vehicle  both  di-
rectly and using the mirrors before pro-
ceeding.  If  you  do  not,  you  may  hit
another  vehicle  or  possibly  cause  an
accident.
Pay  attention  to  the  following  precau-
tions  when  using  the  panoramic  view
monitor.
WA R N I N G
●Never  depend  on  the  panoramic  view
monitor  entirely.  The  image  and  the
position  of  the  guide  lines  displayed  on
the  screen  may  differ  from  the  actual
state.  Use  caution  just  as  you  would
when driving any other vehicle.
● Always  make  sure  to  check  all  around
the  vehicle  with  your  own  eyes  when
driving.
● Never  drive  while  looking  only  at  the
screen as the image on the screen is dif-
ferent  from  actual  conditions.  If  you  are
driving  while  looking  only  at  the  screen,
you  may  hit  a  person  or  an  object,
resulting  in  an  accident.  When  driving,
be sure to check the vehicle’s surround-
ings  with  your  own  eyes  and  the  vehi-
cle’s mirrors.

●Depending  on  the  circumstances  of  the
vehicle  (number  of  passengers,  amount
of  luggage,  etc.),  the  position  of  the
guide lines displayed on the screen may
change.  Be  sure  to  check  visually
around the vehicle before proceeding.
● Do  not  use  the  panoramic  view  monitor
system in the following cases:
• On  icy  or  slick  road  surfaces,  or  in
snow
• When  using  tire  chains  or  emergency tires
• When  the  trunk  is  not  closed  com- pletely
• On  roads  that  are  not  flat  or  straight,
such as curves or slopes
• If the suspension has been modified or tires  of  a  size  other  than  specified  are
installed
● In  low  temperatures,  the  screen  may
darken  or  the  image  may  become  faint.
The  image  could  distort  when  the  vehi-
cle  is  moving,  or  you  may  become
unable  to  see  the  image  on  the  screen.
Be  sure  to  visually  check  all  around  the
vehicle  both  directly  and  using  the  mir-
rors before proceeding.
● If the tire sizes are changed, the position
of  the  guide  lines  displayed  on  the
screen may change.
● The  camera  uses  a  special  lens.  The
distances between objects and pedestri-
ans  that  appear  in  the  image  displayed
on  the  screen  will  differ  from  the  actual
distances. ( P.207)
NOTICE
● In  panoramic  view/moving  view/see-
through  view,  the  system  combines
images  taken  from  the  front,  back,  left
and  right  side  cameras  into  a  single
image. There are limits to the range and
content  that  can  be  displayed.  Familiar-
ize  yourself  with  the  characteristics  of
the  panoramic  view  monitor  system
before using it.
● Image clarity may decline at the four cor-
ners of the panoramic view/moving view/
see-through view. However, this is not a
malfunction,  as  these  are  the  regions
along  the  border  of  each  camera  image
where the images are combined.
● Depending  on  lighting  conditions  near
each  of  the  cameras,  bright  and  dark
patches  may  appear  on  the  panoramic
view/moving view/see-through view.
● The  panoramic  view/moving  view/see-
through  view  display  does  not  extend
higher  than  the  installation  position  and
image capture range of each camera.
● There  are  blind  spots  around  the  vehi-
cle.  Accordingly,  there  are  regions  not
displayed  in  panoramic  view/moving
view/see-through view.
● Three-dimensional  objects  displayed  in
wide  front  view  or  rear  view  may  not  be
displayed  in  panoramic  view/moving
view/see-through view.
● People  and  other  three-dimensional
obstacles  may  appear  differently  when
displayed  on  the  panoramic  view  moni-
tor.  (These  differences  include,  among
others, cases in which displayed objects
appear  to  have  fallen  over,  disappear
near  image  processing  areas,  appear
from  image  processing  areas,  or  when
the  actual  distance  to  an  object  differs
from the displayed position.)

NOTICE
● When  the  trunk,  which  is  equipped  with
the  back  camera,  or  front  doors,  which
are equipped with door mirrors that have
built-in  side  cameras,  are  open,  images
will  not  be  displayed  properly  on  the
panoramic view monitor.
● The vehicle icon displayed in panoramic
view/moving  view/see-through  view  is  a
computer generated image. Accordingly,
properties  such  as  the  color,  shape  and
size  will  differ  from  the  actual  vehicle.
For  this  reason,  nearby  three-dimen-
sional  objects  may  appear  to  be  touch-
ing  the  vehicle,  and  actual  distances  to
three-dimensional  objects  may  differ
from those displayed.
