Operating tips
• When the selector/shift lever is shifted to the “R” (Reverse) position, the monitor screen automatically changes to the rearview monitor mode. However, the radio can be heard.
• It may take some time until the rearview monitor is displayed after the selector/ shift lever has been shifted to “R” from another position or to another position from “R”. Objects may be distorted momentarily until the rearview monitor screen is displayed completely.
• When the temperature is extremely high or low, the screen may not clearly display objects. This is not a malfunction.
• When strong light directly enters the camera, objects may not be displayed clearly. This is not a malfunction.
• Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the screen. This is due to strong reflected light from the bumper. This is not a malfunction.
• The screen may flicker under fluorescent light. This is not a malfunction.
• The colors of objects on the rearview monitor may differ somewhat from those of the actual object.
• Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a dark place or at night. This is not a malfunction.
• If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera, the rearview monitor may not clearly display objects. Clean the camera.
• Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to clean the camera. This will cause discoloration. To clean the camera, wipe with a cloth dampened with diluted mild cleaning agent and then wipe with a dry cloth.
• Do not damage the camera as the monitor screen may be adversely affected.
• Do not use wax on the camera window.
Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth dampened with mild detergent diluted with water.
