Make sure that there are no obstructions within the projected vehicle path lines.
Turn the steering wheel so that the projected vehicle path lines travel inside of the
obstruction (A), and drive the vehicle forward until it passes the obstruction.
If the projected vehicle path lines are on an obstruction (B) or outside of the obstruction (C),
the vehicle may contact the obstruction when turning the vehicle sharply.

CAUTION



The parking sensor detection range has limitations. For example, obstructions closing in
from the side and objects short in height may not be detected. Always confirm the safety
around the vehicle visually when driving.

Do not turn the steering wheel any more until the vehicle has passed the obstruction, even
if the obstruction is not visible on the side view image. If the steering wheel is turned even
more, the vehicle may contact the obstruction if it is turned sharply.

NOTE

Because there might be a difference between the image displayed on the screen and the
actual conditions, always check the safety of the surrounding area using the mirrors and
directly with your eyes when driving.



Even though the object displayed on the screen, such as a road curb or a division line of a
parking space, and the vehicle parallel guide lines appear parallel, they may not actually

How to use the projected vehicle path line function

CAUTION



The front of the vehicle swings out wide when turning the steering wheel while reversing.
Maintain sufficient distance between the vehicle and an obstruction.



The parking sensor detection range has limitations. For example, obstructions closing in
from the side and objects short in height may not be detected. Always confirm the safety
around the vehicle visually when driving.
For details, refer to the parking sensor obstruction detection indication and warning sound.
Refer to Parking Sensor System on page 4-293.

NOTE



Because there might be a difference between the image displayed on the screen, such as
indicated in the following, and the actual conditions when parking, always check the
safety at the rear of the vehicle and the surrounding area directly with your eyes.



Even though the back end of the parking space (or garage) displayed on the screen and
distance guide lines appear parallel, they may not actually be parallel.



When parking in a space with a division line on only one side of the parking space, even
though the division line and the vehicle width guide line appear parallel, they may not
actually be parallel.



The following shows an example of vehicle parking with the steering wheel turned to the
left while backing up the vehicle. When backing into a parking space from the opposite
direction, the steering operation is reversed.

When Driving

1. Back the vehicle into the parking space by turning the steering wheel so that the vehicle

enters the center of the parking space.

(Actual condition)

(Screen display)

2. After the vehicle starts entering the parking space, stop and adjust the steering wheel so

that the distance between the vehicle width lines and the sides of the parking space on
the left and right are roughly equal, and then continue backing up slowly.

3. Once the vehicle width lines and the sides of the parking space on the left and right are

parallel, straighten the wheels and back the vehicle slowly into the parking space.
Continue checking the vehicle's surroundings and then stop the vehicle in the best
possible position. (If the parking space has division lines, check whether the vehicle
width guide lines are parallel to them.)

Margin of Error Between Road Surface on Screen and Actual Road Surface

There might be some margin of error between the road surface appearing on the screen and
the actual road surface. A margin of error in the perceived distance could lead to an
accident, therefore be aware of the following conditions which can more easily produce
errors in the perceived distance.

The vehicle tilts due to weight of passengers and cargo.

If the vehicle is tilted, obstructions picked up by a camera can appear farther or closer than
the actual distance from the vehicle.
