SIDE MONITOR
318
INFORMATION
The area displayed on the screen
may vary according to vehicle sta-
tus or road conditions.
The area of the image captured by
the side camera is limited. The
side camera does not display ob-
jects too close to or directly under
the corners of the bumpers on the
front passenger side.
Due to the property of the side
camera lens, the perceived dis-
tance from images that appear on
the screen differs from the actual
distance.
In the following cases, it may be-
come difficult to see the images on
the screen, but this is not a mal-
function:
In the dark (for example, at night)
When the temperature near the
lens is high or low
When there are water droplets on
the camera lens, or when humid-
ity is high (for example, when it
rains)
When foreign matter such as mud
is stuck to the side camera
When the sun or the beam of
headlights is shining directly
into the camera lens
The following symptoms may oc-
cur, but do not indicate a malfunc-
tion:
The camera may fog up when hu-
midity is high (for example, when
it rains).
When driving at night, ambient
lights such as the lights of the ve-
hicles ahead and building light-
ing may be reflected into the
image.
The center or four corners of the
image may decrease in definition.
As the procedure is the same, fol-
low the instructions for navigation
screen adjustment to adjust the
side monitor. (See page 36.)
When the outside rear view mirrors
are folded, the mirror base ob-
structs the side camera’s view. In
this case, the driver cannot use the
side monitor to check the area in
front of the vehicle.
