WARNING
• Failure to follow the warnings and instructions for the proper use of the Intelligent Around View Monitor sys- tem could result in serious injury or death.
• The Intelligent Around View Monitor is a convenience feature and is not a substitute for proper vehicle opera- tion because it has areas where ob- jects cannot be viewed. The four cor- ners of the vehicle in particular, are areas where objects do not always appear in the bird’s-eye, front, or rear views. Always check your surround- ings to be sure that it is safe to move before operating the vehicle. Always operate the vehicle slowly.
• The driver is always responsible for safety during parking and other maneuvers.
CAUTION Do not scratch the camera lens when cleaning dirt or snow from the front of the camera.
The Intelligent Around View Monitor sys- tem is designed as an aid to the driver in situations such as slot parking or parallel parking. The monitor displays various views of the position of the vehicle in a split screen for- mat. Not all views are available at all times.
Available views:
• Front View
A view of the front of the vehicle. • Rear View
A view of the rear of the vehicle. • Bird's-Eye View
The surrounding view of the vehicle from above.
• Front-Side View The view around and ahead of the front passenger's side wheel.
• Front-Wide View A wider area view of the front view.
• Rear-Wide View A wider area view of the rear view.

To display the multiple views, the Intelligent Around View Monitor system uses cam- eras located in the front grille, on the vehi- cle’s outside mirrors and in the rear bum- per O1 . INTELLIGENT AROUND VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM OPERATION With the ignition switch in the ON position, move the shift lever to the R (Reverse) po- sition or press the CAMERA button to oper- ate the Intelligent Around View Monitor.

WARNING
• The distance guide lines and the ve- hicle width lines should be used as a reference only when the vehicle is on a paved, level surface. The apparent distance viewed on the monitor may be different than the actual distance between the vehicle and displayed objects.
• Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-eye view as a reference. The lines and the bird’s-eye view are greatly affected by the number of oc- cupants, cargo, fuel level, vehicle po- sition, road condition and road grade.
• If the tires are replaced with different sized tires, the predicted course lines and the bird's-eye view may be dis- played incorrectly.
• When driving the vehicle up a hill, ob- jects viewed in the monitor are fur- ther than they appear. When driving the vehicle down a hill, objects viewed in the monitor are closer than they appear.
• Objects in the rear view will appear visually opposite compared to when viewed in the monitor and outside mirrors.
• Use the mirrors or actually look to properly judge distances to other objects.
• On a snow-covered or slippery road, there may be a difference between the predicted course lines and the actual course line.
• The vehicle width and predicted course lines are wider than the actual width and course.
Front and rear view
Guiding lines that indicate the approximate vehicle width and distance to objects with reference to the vehicle body line OA are displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines
Indicate distances from the vehicle body: • Red line O1 : approximately 1.5 ft (0.5 m) • Yellow line O2 : approximately 3 ft (1 m) • Green line O3 : approximately 7 ft (2 m) • Green line O4 : approximately 10 ft (3 m) (if
so equipped)

Vehicle width guide lines O5
Indicate the approximate vehicle width when backing up.
Predicted course lines O6
Indicate the predicted course when oper- ating the vehicle. The predicted course lines will be displayed on the monitor when the steering wheel is turned. The predicted course lines will move depending on how much the steering wheel is turned and might not be displayed while the steering wheel is in the straight-ahead position.
The front view will not be displayed when the vehicle speed is above 6 mph (10 km/h).
NOTE: When the monitor displays the front view and the steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or less from the straight- ahead position, both the right and left predicted course lines O6 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’s-eye view
The bird's-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 O1 shows the position of the vehicle. Note that the apparent dis- tance between objects viewed in the bird's-eye view may differ somewhat from the actual distance to the vehicle. The areas that the cameras cannot cover O2 (if so equipped) are indicated in black.

The non-viewable area O2 (if so equipped) is highlighted in yellow for several seconds after the bird’s-eye view is displayed. It will be shown only the first time after the igni- tion switch is placed in the ON position. In addition, the non-viewable corners are displayed in red and blink for the first 3 seconds O3 to remind the driver to be cautious.
Predicted course lines O4 indicate the pre- dicted course when operating the vehicle. The predicted course lines will be displayed on the monitor when the steering wheel is turned. The predicted course lines will move depending on how much the steer- ing wheel is turned and will not be dis- played while the steering wheel is in the neutral position. When the monitor displays the front view and the steering wheel turns about 90 de- grees or less from the neutral position, the two green predicted course lines are shown in front of the vehicle. When the steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or more, one green predicted course line is shown in front of the vehicle and the other predicted course line is shown at the side of the vehicle. When the monitor displays the rear view, the predicted course lines are shown at the back of the vehicle.
WARNING
• Objects in the bird's-eye view will ap-
pear further than the actual distance.
• 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 of the bird's-eye view may be misaligned when the camera po- sition alters.
• A line on the ground may be mis- aligned 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.

The front-wide view will not be displayed when the vehicle speed is above 6 MPH (10 km/h).
NOTE:
• When the monitor displays the front-wide
view and the steering wheel turns about 90 degrees or less from the straight ahead position, both the right and left predicted course lines O6 are displayed. When the steering wheel is turns about 90 degrees or more, the predicted course line is displayed only on the opposite side of the turn.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PREDICTED AND ACTUAL DISTANCES The displayed guidelines and their loca- tions on the ground are for approximate reference only. Objects on uphill or downhill surfaces or projecting objects will be actu- ally located at distances different from those displayed in the monitor relative to the guidelines (refer to illustrations). 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.
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 ac- tual distance. Note that any object on the hill is further than it appears on the monitor.
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 farther than the actual distance. Note that any object on the hill is closer than it appears on the monitor.

Backing up near a projecting object The predicted course lines OA do not touch the object in the display. However, the ve- hicle may hit the object if it projects over the actual backing up course.

Backing up behind a projecting object The position OC is shown farther than the position OB in the display. However, the po- sition OC is actually at the same distance as the position OA . The vehicle may hit the
object when backing up to the position OA if the object projects over the actual back- ing up course. HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED COURSE LINES
WARNING
• If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predicted course lines may be displayed incorrectly.
• On a snow-covered or slippery road, there may be a difference between the predicted course line and the ac- tual course line.
• If the battery is disconnected or be- comes discharged, the predicted course lines may be displayed incor- rectly. If this occurs, please perform the following procedures:
– Turn the steering wheel from lock
to lock while the engine is running.
– 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 predicted course lines may be displayed incorrectly.
