lever in the "R" position with the ignition switch in
the "ON" position, the view behind the vehicle will
automatically appear on the screen of the

(MMCS) or the inside rear-view mirror. When you
move the gearshift lever or the selector lever to any
other position, the screen will return to its original
indication.
CAUTION
l
The rear-view camera has a special lens
that can make objects shown on the
screen appear to be closer or further
away than they actually are.
NOTE

In the following situations, the screen indica-
tion may be difficult to see. There is no ab-
normality.
• Low light (nighttime)
• When the light of the sun or the light
from a vehicle's headlamps shines direct-
ly into the lens.
l
If the camera is hot and is then cooled by
rain or a car wash, the lens can mist up. This
phenomenon does not indicate a malfunction.
l
It is not possible to fully see obstacles when
the lens is dirty. If the lens becomes contami-
nated by water droplets, snow, mud or oil,
wipe off the contamination, taking care not
to scratch the lens.
l
Please observe the following cautions. Ignor-
ing them could lead to a camera malfunction.
• Do not subject the camera to physical
System
shock.
• Do not apply wax to the camera.
• Do not splash the camera with boiling wa-
ter.
• Do not disassemble the camera.

NOTE
l
When the vehicle is tilting because of the num-
ber of people in the vehicle, the weight and
positioning of luggage, and/or the condition
of the road surface, the lines in the view
from the rear-view camera may not be accu-
rately positioned relative to the actual road.
The reference lines for distance and vehicle
width are based on a level, flat road surface.
In the following cases, objects shown on the
screen will appear to be farther off then they
actually are.
