Multi-terrain Monitor
The Multi-terrain Monitor displays the vehicle surroundings when driving at low speeds, thus assisting off-road driving and helping the driver to check the vehicle surroundings.
- By pressing the VIEW switch, the display can be shown, or the display image can be changed between the front screen, wide view front & side monitor screen, side-front simultaneous display monitor screen, side-rear simultaneous display monitor screen or rear screen. (The screens that can be selected differ depending on the shift position and the transfer mode.)
- By referring to the guidelines shown on the front monitor screen, you can decide a driving line while assessing the distance to obstacles ahead of the vehicle and confirm the projected path, and by using the wide view front & side monitors, the side-front simultaneous display monitor and the side-rear simultaneous display monitor to identify objects in the vicinity or course of the tires, you can drive while preventing the vehicle from becoming stuck unexpectedly.

- Using the vehicle width line & course line
- Vehicle width line
Use the vehicle width line to check the vehicle’s distance from objects such as curbstones etc.
As shown in the illustration, be sure that the vehicle width line does not overlap the object. If you also move the vehicle so that the vehicle width line and the object are parallel, you can park parallel to the object.
- Minimum projected turning circle & projected course line
Use the minimum projected turning circle & projected course line (when displayed) to check the vehicle’s path with relation to obstacles.
If the minimum projected turning circle line (blue) is over the obstacle as shown in the illustration, or the obstacle falls within the minimum projected turning circle, if you turn with the minimum possible turning circle, the vehicle may collide with the object.
When the projected course line (yellow) is displayed, be sure to operate the steering wheel so that the obstacle stays outside the projected course line until the vehicle has passed the object.
- The Multi-terrain Monitor can be operated when
