■When any part of the vehi-
cle sags
When any part of the vehicle
sags due to the number of pas-
sengers or the distribution of the
load, there is a margin of error
between the guide lines on the
screen and the actual dis-
tance/course on the road.
A margin of error When there are three-dimen-
sional objects (such as vehicle
bumpers, etc.) nearby in posi-
tions higher than the surface of
the road, take extra care when
using the following.
Since the panoramic view pro-
cess and display images based
on flat road surfaces, it cannot
depict the position of three-
dimension objects (such as
vehicle bumpers, etc.) that are
in positions higher than the sur-
face of the road. For example,
even though it appears that
there is space between the
bumpers of the two vehicles in
the illustration below and they
are not likely to collide, in reality,
a collision is about to occur.

dimensional objects
WARNING
●When a sensor indicator on the
intuitive parking assist display
illuminates in red or a buzzer
sounds continuously, be sure to
check the area around the vehi-
cle immediately and do not pro-
ceed any further until safety has
been ensured, otherwise an
unexpected accident may occur.

Multi-terrain Monitor*
The Multi-terrain Monitor
helps the driver to check the
vehicle surroundings. It
assists in determining the
conditions around the
driver in a variety of situa-
tions, such as when judging
conditions during off-road
driving or checking for
obstacles when parking.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions
to avoid an accident that could
result in death or serious injuries.
■When using the Multi-terrain
Monitor system
●Never rely solely on the Multi-
terrain Monitor. As with
unequipped vehicles, drive
carefully while directly confirm-
ing the safety o f your surround-
ings and the area to the rear of
the vehicle. Take particular care
to avoid parked cars and other
obstacles.
●Due to the characteristics of the
camera lens, the actual position
and distance of people and
other obstacles will differ from
those shown on the Multi-terrain
Monitor screen. Directly con-
firm the safety of your surround-
ings before driving.
●Do not drive while only looking
at the screen. When driving,
make sure to directly confirm
the safety of your surroundings,
such as by visually checking the
area and using the vehicle’s
mirrors.
●In low temperatures, the screen
may darken or the images may
become faint. Images of moving
objects in particular may distort
or disappear from the screen.
Therefore, make sure to drive
carefully while directly visually
confirming the safety of your
surroundings.

WARNING
●Never depend on the Multi-ter-
rain 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 different 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 surroundings with
your own eyes and the vehicle’s
mirrors.

2347-3. Multi-terrain Monitor
WARNING
●Depending on the circum-
stances of the vehicle (number
of passengers, amount of lug-
gage, etc.), the position of the
guide lines displayed on the
screen may change. Be sure to
check visually around the vehi-
cle before proceeding.
●Do not use the Multi-terrain
Monitor in the following cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or in snow
• When using tire chains or emer- gency tires
• When the front door or tailgate is not close d completely
• 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 vehicle is mov-
ing, 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 mirrors before
proceeding.
●If the tire sizes are changed, the
position of the guide lines dis-
played on the screen may
change.
●The camera uses a special lens.
The distances between objects
and pedestrians that appear in
the image displayed on the
screen will differ from the actual
distances. ( P.239)
NOTICE
●In panoramic 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. Familiarize yourself
with the characteristics of the
panoramic view monitor system
before using it.
●Image clarity may decline at the
four corners of t he panoramic
view. However, this is not a mal-
function, as these are the
regions along the border of
each camera image where the
images are combined.
●Depending on lighting condi-
tions near each of the cameras,
bright and dark patches may
appear on the panoramic view.
●The panoramic view display
does not extend higher than the
installation pos ition and image
capture range o f each camera.
●There are blind spots around
the vehicle. Accordingly, there
are regions not displayed in
panoramic view.
●Three-dimensional objects dis-
played in side view, wide front
view or rear view may not be
displayed in panoramic view.
●People and other three-dimen-
sional obstacles may appear
differently when displayed on
the panoramic vi ew. (These dif-
ferences include, among others,
cases in which displayed
objects appear to have fallen
over, disappear near image pro-
cessing areas, appear from
image processing areas, or
when the actual distance to an
object differs from the displayed
position.)
