. The RearView Monitor is a conve-

nience but it is not a substitute

for proper backing. Always turn

and look out the windows, and

check mirrors to be sure that it is

safe to move before operating

the vehicle. Always back up

slowly.

. The system is designed as an aid

to the driver in showing large

stationary objects directly behind

the vehicle, to help avoid dama-

ging the vehicle.

. The distance guide line and the

vehicle width line should be used

as a reference only when the

vehicle is on a level paved sur-

face. The distance viewed on the

monitor is for reference only and

may be different than the actual

distance between the vehicle and

displayed objects.

(Reverse) position to operate the Rear-

View Monitor.

SAA1896

HOW TO READ DISPLAYED LINES

Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle

width and distances to objects with

reference to the bumper line

are

displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the bumper.
. Red line : approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)

. Yellow line : approx. 3 ft (1 m)

. Green line : approx. 7 ft (2 m)

. Green line : approx. 10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines

Indicate the vehicle width when backing

up.

Predictive course lines

Indicate the predictive course when back-

ing up. The predictive course lines will be

displayed on the monitor when the shift

lever is in the “R” (Reverse) position and

the steering wheel is turned. The predic-

tive course lines will move depending on

how much the steering wheel is turned

and will not be displayed while the steer-

ing wheel is in the neutral position.
The vehicle width guide lines and the

width of the predictive course lines are

wider than the actual width and course.

HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTIVE

COURSE LINES

WARNING

. If the tires are replaced with

different sized tires, the predic-

tive course line may not be dis-

played correctly.

. On a snow-covered or slippery

road, there may be a difference

between the predictive course

line and the actual course line.

. The displayed lines will appear

slightly off to the right because

the rearview camera is not in-

stalled in the rear center of the

vehicle.

SAA1897

1. Visually check that the parking space

is safe before parking your vehicle.

2. The rear view of the vehicle is dis-

played on the screen

3. Slowly back up the vehicle adjusting

the steering wheel so that the pre-

dictive course lines

enter the park-

ing space

4. Maneuver the steering wheel to make

the vehicle width guide lines

parallel

to the parking space

while referring

to the predictive course lines.

5. When the vehicle is parked in the

space completely, move the shift lever

to the P (Park) position (Automatic

Transmission models) or in an appro-

priate gear (Manual Transmission

models) and apply the parking brake.

Difference between predictive and

actual distances

The displayed guide lines and their loca-

tions on the ground are for approximate

reference only. Objects on uphill or down-

hill surfaces or projecting objects will be

actually located at distances different

from those displayed in the monitor

relative to the guide lines (refer to illustra-

tions). When in doubt, turn around and

view the objects as you are backing up, or

park and exit the vehicle to view the

positioning of objects behind the vehicle.

JVH1355X

Backing up on a steep uphill:
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the

distance guide lines and the vehicle width

guide lines are shown closer than the

actual distance. Note that any object on

the hill is further than it appears on the

monitor.

JVH1356X

Backing up on a steep downhill:
When backing up the vehicle down a hill,

the distance guide lines and the vehicle

width guide lines are shown further than

the actual distance. Note that any object

on the hill is closer than it appears on the

monitor.

SAA1923

Backing up near a projecting object:
The predictive course lines

do not

touch the object in the display. However,

the vehicle may hit the object if it projects

over the actual backing up course.

SAA1924

Backing up behind a projecting object:
The position

is shown further than the

position

in the display. However, the

position

is actually at the same dis-

tance as the position

. The vehicle may

hit the object when backing up to the

position

if the object projects over the

actual backing up course.

REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM LIM-

ITATIONS

WARNING

Listed below are the system limita-

tions for RearView Monitor. Failure to

operate the vehicle in accordance

with these system limitations could

result in serious injury or death.
. The system cannot completely

eliminate blind spots and may

not show every object.

. Underneath the bumper and the

corner areas of the bumper can-

not 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 ob-

jects close to the bumper or on

the ground.

. Objects viewed in the RearView

Monitor differ from actual dis-

tance because a wide-angle lens

is used.

. Objects in the RearView Monitor

will appear visually opposite

compared to when viewed in the

rear view and outside mirrors.

. Use the displayed lines as a re-

ference. The lines are highly af-

f e c t e d b y t h e n u m b e r o f

occupants, fuel level, vehicle po-

sition, road conditions and road

grade.

. Make sure that the trunk lid or

rear hatch is securely closed

when backing up.

. Do not put anything on the rear-

view camera. The rearview cam-

era is installed above the license

plate.

. When washing the vehicle with

high-pressure water, be sure not

to spray it around the camera.

Otherwise, water may enter the

camera unit causing water con-

densation on the lens, a malfunc-

tion, fire or an electric shock.

. Do not strike the camera. It is a

precision instrument. Otherwise,

it may malfunction or cause da-

mage resulting in a fire or an

electric shock.

The following are operating limitations

and do not represent a system malfunc-

tion:
. When the temperature is extremely

high or low, the screen may not clearly

display objects.

. When strong light is directly coming

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 fluores-

cent 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.

. 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 win-

dow. Wipe off any wax with a clean

cloth dampened with mild detergent

diluted with water.
