HOW TO USE THE REAR VIEW CAMERA
When the shift lever/select lever is set to "R", the rear view
camera automatically displays the rear view image from the
vehicle. When the lever is set to other positions, the image
before setting to "R" is displayed.
1.
Set the ignition switch to "ON".
2.
Set the shift lever/select lever to "R".
NOTE
8-inch with Navi system only: While the navigation system
l
is activated, the image of the rear view camera will not be
displayed. However, the image of the rear view camera has
priority over other screen displays.
The image of the rear view camera is horizontally reversed as is
l
the case with the vehicle rearview mirror or the side view mirror.
It may be difficult to see the image of the rear view camera in the
l
following cases. This is not a malfunction of the camera.
• The vehicle is in a dark place (at night, in a tunnel, etc.).
• The vehicle is in an extremely hot or cold place.
• An object (such as raindrops, snow, dirt, etc.) that disturbs the
view of the rear view camera sticks to the lens of the camera.
• Strong light shined directly on the camera lens (occasionally,
there are vertical lines on the screen).
• The vehicle is used for towing or a trailer hitch is installed.
SETTING THE CAMERA IMAGE DISPLAY TIME
The length of time that the camera image remains displayed
when the shift lever/select lever is shifted from "R" to "D"
can be set. (→P.62)
VIEWING RANGE ON THE SCREEN
CAUTION
l The range that can be viewed with the rear view camera is
limited. Always be sure to check with your eyes when moving
backward and proceed slowly.
The area from the rear end of the bumper can be viewed.
Areas at both ends of the bumper and areas just under the
bumper cannot be viewed. Also, the image from the rear
view camera looks shorter than the actual distance.
