Help line
The help line (distance marker and vehicle width line) is a guide to help you realize the actual distance from the screen image.
1) Vehicle width line (oblique vertical line)
2) Approx. 10 feet (3 m) from the bumper
(green horizontal line)
3) Approx. 6.5 feet (2 m) from the bumper
(green horizontal line)
4) Approx. 3 feet (1 m) from the bumper
(yellow horizontal line)
5) Approx. 1.5 feet (0.5 m) from the bumper
(red horizontal line)
6) Vehicle centerline
When the shift lever/select lever is set to position “R”, the monitor screen displays the help lines together with the rear view image.
CAUTION
● When moving backward, always check the back with your eyes without relying on the help lines.
● The actual position may be different from the indication of the help lines.
● Differences may occur due to number of passengers or loaded cargo.
● When the vehicle is on a slope or when the vehicle is inclined against the road, the indication is different from the actual position.
Difference between screen image and actual road
The distance markers show the distance for a level road when the vehicle is not loaded. It may be different from the actual distance depending on the loading conditions or road conditions.
When there is an upward slope at the back
The distance on the screen looks farther than the actual distance.
When there is a downward slope at the back
The distance on the screen looks nearer than the actual distance.
NOTE
When cargo is loaded, the rear view distance on the screen looks farther than the actual distance as in an upward slope.
Feature of distance marker
The distance marker shows the distance on the road. If there is a car or other object close behind, distance cannot be correctly displayed.
