Underneath the bumper and the
corner areas of the bumper can-
not be viewed on the RearView
Monitor because of its monitoring
range limitation. The system will
not show small objects below the
bumper, and may not show ob-

the ground.
Objects viewed in the RearView
Monitor differ from actual dis-
tance because a wide-angle lens
is used.
Objects in the RearView Monitor
will appear visually opposite

rearview and outside mirrors.
Use the displayed lines as a re-
