If the position or angle of each camera changes due to tilting of the vehicle, the
image may appear distorted.
Lines on the road may appear distorted at the seams where each of the camera
images merge.
The screen area for each camera may appear bright/dark depending on the
illumination level around any of the cameras.

How to use the projected vehicle path line function
CAUTION
¾ The front of the vehicle swings out wide when turning the steering wheel while
reversing. Maintain sufficient distance between the vehicle and an obstruction.
¾ The parking sensor detection range has limitations. For example, obstructions
closing in from the side and objects short in height may not be detected. Always
confirm the safety around the vehicle visually when driving.
For details, refer to the parking sensor obstruction detection indication and
warning sound.
Refer to Parking Sensor System on page 4-231.
NOTE
Because there might be a difference between the image displayed on the screen,
such as indicated in the following, and the actual conditions when parking, always
check the safety at the rear of the vehicle and the surrounding area directly with
your eyes.
Even though the back end of the parking space (or garage) displayed on the
screen and distance guide lines appear parallel, they may not actually be
parallel.
When parking in a space with a division line on only one side of the parking
space, even though the division line and the vehicle width guide line appear
parallel, they may not actually be parallel.
The following shows an example of vehicle parking with the steering wheel turned
to the left while backing up the vehicle. When backing into a parking space from
the opposite direction, the steering operation is reversed.
4-186
When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
1. Back the vehicle into the parking space by turning the steering wheel so that the
vehicle enters the center of the parking space.

(Screen display)
2.
(Actual condition)
2. After the vehicle starts entering the parking space, stop and adjust the steering
wheel so that the distance between the vehicle width lines and the sides of the
parking space on the left and right are roughly equal, and then continue backing
up slowly.
4-187
When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
3. Once the vehicle width lines and the sides of the parking space on the left and
right are parallel, straighten the wheels and back the vehicle slowly into the
parking space. Continue checking the vehicle's surroundings and then stop the
vehicle in the best possible position. (If the parking space has division lines,
check whether the vehicle width guide lines are parallel to them.)

Use the top view/rear wide view to assist in checking the safety of the surrounding
area when accelerating from a stop, parking, or stopping the vehicle.
Range of displayed screen image
1. Target object
NOTE
In the top view screen, the areas in black at the front and rear of the vehicle image
and the seams where each of the camera images merge are blind spots.
Because images displayed in the top view screen are processed from each camera,
the top view screen may display in the following ways.
Depending on the surrounding environment, the color of objects may be
displayed on the screen in a color different from the actual one.
Depending on the surrounding environment, it may take a few seconds for the
color of the screen display to adjust.
Obstructions displayed in the front view may not display on the top view screen.
If the position or angle of each camera changes due to tilting of the vehicle, the
image may appear distorted.
Lines on the road may appear distorted at the seams where each of the camera

The screen area for each camera may appear bright/dark depending on the

The red lines indicate the points up to about 0.5 m

NOTE
The top view/rear wide view screen displays the image at the rear of the vehicle at a
wide angle and corrects the image to help detect approaching obstructions from the
side. Therefore, it differs from the actual view.

Margin of Error Between Road Surface on Screen and Actual Road Surface
There might be some margin of error between the road surface appearing on the
screen and the actual road surface. A margin of error in the perceived distance could
lead to an accident, therefore be aware of the following conditions which can more
easily produce errors in the perceived distance.
The vehicle tilts due to weight of passengers and cargo.
If the vehicle is tilted, obstructions picked up by a camera can appear farther or
closer than the actual distance from the vehicle.
