 Rear View Monitor Operation

The operation of the rear view monitor when reversing the vehicle varies depending on 

the traffic, road, and vehicle conditions. The amount of steering and the timing also varies 

depending on conditions, so confirm the surrounding conditions directly with your eyes and 

steer the vehicle in accordance with the conditions.

Be well aware of the above cautions prior to using the rear view monitor.

NOTE

Images displayed on the monitor from the rear view parking camera are reversed images 

(mirror images).

1.  Shift the shift lever to R to switch the display to the rear view monitor display.

2.  Confirming the surrounding conditions, reverse the vehicle.

3.  After your vehicle begins entering the parking space, continue backing up slowly so that 

the distance between the vehicle width lines and the sides of the parking space on the left 

and right are roughly equal.

4.  Continue to adjust the steering wheel until the vehicle width guide lines are parallel to 

the left and right sides of the parking space.
