HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED
COURSE LINES
WARNING
●
Always turn and check that it is safe to do so
before backing up. Always back up slowly.
●
Use the displayed lines as a reference. The
lines are highly affected by the number of
occupants, fuel level, vehicle position, road
condition and road grade.
●
If the tires are replaced with different sized
tires, the predicted course line may be dis-
played incorrectly.
●
On a snow-covered or slippery road, there
may be a difference between the predicted
course line and the actual course line.
●
If the battery is disconnected or becomes
discharged, the predicted course lines may
be displayed incorrectly. If this occurs,
please perform the following procedures:
– Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock
while the engine is running.
– Drive the vehicle on a straight road for
more than 5 minutes.
●
When the steering wheel is turned with the
ignition switch in the ACC position, the pre-
dicted course lines may be displayed
incorrectly.
●
The distance guide line and the vehicle
width line 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 dis-
played objects.
●
When backing-up the vehicle up a hill ob-
jects viewed in the monitor are further than
they appear. When backing-up the vehicle
down a hill objects viewed in the monitor are
closer than they appear. Use the inside mir-
ror or glance over your shoulder to properly
judge distances to other objects.
The vehicle width and predicted course lines are
wider than the actual width and course.
