Difference between predicted and actual distances

The distance guide line and the vehicle width guide line on the front and the rearview should be used as a reference only when the vehicle is on a level, paved surface. The distance viewed on the monitor is for reference only and may be different than the actual distance between the vehicle and displayed objects.
Moving to a steep uphill

When moving the vehicle up a hill, the distance guide lines and the vehicle width guide lines are shown closer than the actual distance. For example, the display shows 3 ft (1 m) to the place A , but the actual 3 ft (1 m) distance on the hill is the placeB . Note that any object on the hill is viewed in the monitor further than it appears.
Moving to a steep downhill

When moving the vehicle down a hill, the distance guide lines and the vehicle width guide lines are shown further than the actual distance. For example, the display shows 3 ft (1 m) to the place A , but the actual 3 ft (1 m) distance on the hill is the placeB . Note that any object on the hill is viewed in the monitor closer than it appears.
Moving near a projecting object

Moving closer to a projecting object

The position C is shown further than the position B in the display. However, the position C is actually at the same distance as the position A . The vehicle may hit the object when moving toward the position A if the object projects over the actual moving course.
