Operating tips

● When the shift selector is shifted to R (Reverse), 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 shift selector has been shifted to R (Reverse). Objects may be distorted momentarily until the Rear- View Monitor screen is displayed completely.

When the shift selector is returned to a position other than R (Reverse), it may take some time until the screen changes. Objects on the screen may be distorted until they are completely displayed.

● 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.

● 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.

● When the contrast of objects is low at night, pressing the setting control knob or SETUP button may not change the brightness.

● Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a dark place or at night.

● If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera, the RearView Monitor may not 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 a 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 body wax on the camera window.

If body wax does get on the camera window, wipe off the wax with a clean cloth dampened with mild detergent diluted with water.
