How to see each view
WARNING
► The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line should be used as a reference
only when the vehicle is on a paved,
level surface. The distance viewed on the
monitor is for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance between
the vehicle and displayed objects.
► Use the displayed lines and the bird-eye
view as a reference. The lines and the
bird-eye view are greatly affected by the
number of occupants, fuel level, vehicle
position, road condition and road grade.
► If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course lines
and the bird-eye view may be displayed
incorrectly.
► When driving the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are further
than they appear. When driving the
vehicle down a hill, objects viewed in
the monitor are closer than they appear.
Use the mirrors or actually look to
properly judge distances to other objects.
The vehicle width and predictive course lines are wider than the actual width and course.
Front and rearview
Guiding lines, which indicate the vehicle width and distances to objects with reference to the vehicle body line A , are displayed on the monitor. Distance guide lines: Indicate distances from the vehicle body.
► Red line 1 : approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
► Yellow line 2 : approx. 3 ft (1 m)
► Green line 3 : approx. 7 ft (2 m)
► Green line 4 : approx. 10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines 5 :
Indicate the vehicle width when backing up.
Predictive course lines 6 :
Indicate the predictive course when operating the vehicle. The predictive course lines will be displayed on the monitor when the steering wheel is turned. The predictive course lines will move depending on how much the steering wheel is turned and will not be displayed while the steering wheel is in the neutral position. The front view will not be displayed when the vehicle speed is above 6 MPH (10 km/h).
WARNING
► The distance between objects viewed in
the rearview differs from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens is used.
Objects in the rearview will appear
visually opposite than when viewed in
the rearview and outside mirrors.
► On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between the
predictive course lines and the actual
course line.
► If the battery is disconnected or becomes
discharged, the predictive course
lines may be displayed incorrectly. If this
occurs, perform the following procedure:
— Drive the vehicle on a straight road
for more than 5 minutes.
► When the steering wheel is turned with
the ignition switch in the ACC position,
the predictive course lines may be
displayed incorrectly.
► The displayed lines on the rearview will
appear slightly off to the right because
the rearview camera is not installed in
the rear center of the vehicle.
NOTE:
When the monitor displays the front view and the steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or less from the neutral position, both the right and left predictive course lines 6 are displayed. When the steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or more, a line is displayed only on the opposite side of the turn.
Bird-eye view
The bird-eye view shows the overhead view of the vehicle which helps confirm the vehicle position and the predicted course to a parking space. The vehicle icon 1 shows the position of the vehicle. Note that the size of the vehicle icon on the bird-eye view may differ somewhat from the actual vehicle. The areas that the cameras cannot cover2 are indicated in black. After pushing the ignition switch, with the Non-viewable Area turned to ON, the nonviewable area 2 is highlighted in yellow for 7 seconds after the bird-eye view is displayed. When the corner of the vehicle moves closer to an object, the corner sonar indicator 3 appears.
WARNING
► Objects in the bird-eye view will appear
further than the actual distance because
the bird-eye view is a pseudo view that
is processed by combining the views
from the cameras on the outside mirrors,
the front and the rear of the vehicle.
► Tall objects, such as a curb or vehicle,
may be misaligned or not displayed at
the seam of the views.
► Objects that are above the camera
cannot be displayed.
► The view for the bird-eye view may be
misaligned when the camera position
alters.
► A line on the ground may be misaligned
and is not seen as being straight at the
seam of the views. The misalignment will
increase as the line proceeds away from
the vehicle.
Front-side view
Guiding lines:
Guiding lines that indicate the width and the front end of the vehicle are displayed on the monitor. The front-of-vehicle line1 shows the front part of the vehicle. The side-of-vehicle line 2 shows the vehicle width including the outside mirror. The extensions 3 of both the front 1 and side 2 lines are shown with a green dotted line. The corner sonar indicator 4 will appear when a corner of the vehicle moves closer to an object. The corner sonar indicator 4 can be turned off. See “Around ViewTM Monitor settings” later in this section.
CAUTION
The turn signal light may overlap with the
side-of-vehicle line. This is not a malfunction.
Infrared illumination:
The images on the front-side view can be displayed at night using the infrared illumination on the outside mirror.
Rear-wide view
The rear-wide view shows a wider area on the entire screen and allows the checking of the blind corners on the right and left sides. The rear-wide view displays an approximately 180-degree area while the front view and the rearview display an approximately 150-degree area. The predictive course lines are not displayed on the rear-wide view. Distance guide lines: Indicates distances from the vehicle body.
► Red line 1 : approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
► Yellow line 2 : approx. 3 ft (1 m)
► Green line 3 : approx. 7 ft (2 m)
► Green line 4 : approx. 10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines 5 :
Indicates the vehicle width when backing up. The corner sonar indicator 6 will appear when a corner of the vehicle moves closer to an object.
