Driving precautions
The panoramic view monitor is a sup-
plemental device intended to assist the
driver when checking around the vehi-
cle. When using, be sure to visually
check all around the vehicle both
directly and using the mirrors before
proceeding. If you do not, you may hit
another vehicle or possibly cause an
accident.
Pay attention to the following precau-
tions when using the panoramic view
monitor.
WARNING
Never depend on the panoramic view
●
monitor entirely. The image and the
position of the guide lines displayed on
the screen may differ from the actual
state. Use caution just as you would
when driving any other vehicle.
● Always make sure to check all around
the vehicle with your own eyes when
driving.
● Never drive while looking only at the
screen as the image on the screen is
different from actual conditions. If you
are driving while looking only at the
screen, you may hit a person or an
object, resulting in an accident. When
driving, be sure to check the vehicle's
surroundings with your own eyes and
the vehicle's mirrors.
● Depending on the circumstances of
the vehicle (number of passengers,
amount of luggage, etc.), the position
of the guide lines displayed on the
screen may change. Be sure to check
visually around the vehicle before pro-
ceeding.

● Do not use the panoramic view moni-
tor system in the following cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or in
snow
• When using tire chains or emergency
tires
• When the front door or back door is
not closed completely
• On roads that are not flat or straight,
such as curves or slopes
• If the suspension has been modified or
tires of a size other than specified are
installed
In low temperatures, the screen may
●
darken or the image may become
faint. The image could distort when the
vehicle is moving, or you may become
unable to see the image on the screen.
Be sure to visually check all around the
vehicle both directly and using the mir-
rors before proceeding.
If the tire sizes are changed, the posi-
●
tion of the guide lines displayed on the
screen may change.
● The camera uses a special lens. The
distances between objects and pedes-
trians that appear in the image dis-
played on the screen will differ from
the actual distances. (→P.208)
● In panoramic view/moving view/see-
through view, the system combines
images taken from the front, back, left
and right side cameras into a single
image. There are limits to the range
and content that can be displayed.
Familiarize yourself with the character-
istics of the panoramic view monitor
system before using it.
