When Driving

Rear View Monitor

   NOTE

  Because there may be a difference between the displayed image, such as indicated below, 
and the actual conditions when parking, always verify the safety at the rear of the vehicle 
and the surrounding area directly with your eyes.

  In the image of the parking space (or garage) displayed below, even though the back end 

and distance guide lines appear parallel in the monitor, they may not actually be parallel 
on the ground.

  When parking in a space with a division line on only one side of the parking space, the 

division line and the vehicle width guide line may appear parallel on the monitor, but they 
may not actually be parallel on the ground.

 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.

  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.
