Variance Between Actual Road 
Conditions and Displayed Image

Some variance occurs between the actual road and the displayed road. Such variance in 
distance perspective could lead to an accident. Note the following conditions that may cause 
a variance in distance perspective. 

1

When the vehicle is tilted due to the weight of passengers and 
load

When the vehicle rear is lowered, the object displayed on the screen appears farther than the 
actual distance.

The figure is an example showing Mazda CX-9.

2

When there is a steep grade behind the vehicle

When there is a steep upgrade (downgrade) behind the vehicle, the object displayed on the 
screen appears farther (downgrade: closer) than the actual distance.

The figure is an example showing Mazda CX-9.
