When the shift selector is shifted into the R
(Reverse) position, the monitor display shows a
rearward view from the vehicle.

WARNING

• The system is designed as an aid to the

driver in detecting large stationary ob-
jects to help avoid damaging the ve-
hicle. The system will not detect small
objects below the bumper, and may
not detect objects close to the bumper
or on the ground.

• The RearView Monitor is a conve-

nience but it is not a substitute for
proper backing. Always turn and check
that it is safe to do so before backing
up. Always back up slowly.

• Objects viewed in the RearView Moni-

tor differ from actual distance because
a wide-angle lens is used.

• Make sure that the hatch is securely

closed when backing up.

• Do not put anything on the rearview

camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled on top of the hatch.

• 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 wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock.

• Do not strike the camera. It is a preci-

sion instrument. Otherwise, it may
malfunction or cause damage result-
ing in a fire or an electric shock.

CAUTION

There is a plastic cover over the camera.
Do not scratch the cover when cleaning
dirt or snow from the cover.
