3. OPERATION EXPLANATION
(a) The radio and display receiver assembly receives the reverse signal from the park/neutral position switch assembly when the shift lever is moved to R. After receiving the reverse signal, the radio and display receiver assembly switches to the rear view monitor system.
4. NOTES FOR REAR VIEW MONITOR
(a) Notes for the rear view monitor.
(1) The rear view monitor may not function properly if the camera is subjected to a severe blow by any hard object.
(2) Do not "scrub" the camera because it is made of resin. Scrubbing it may scratch the camera and affect the image. Prevent organic solvents, waxes, bond removing solvents, or glass coating from adhering to the camera. If anything adheres to the camera, clean it off immediately and wash it with water.
(3) Exposing the camera to a sudden temperature change may affect proper functioning of the camera.
(4) A clear image may not appear if the camera is dirty with snow, mud, etc. In that case, wash it with water and wipe off the lens. Use a detergent to remove dirt if necessary.
(b) Images are difficult to discern even in normal conditions if:
(1) The camera lens is dirty with snow, mud and etc.
(2) The vehicle is tilted at a steep angle.
(3) The camera lens is frosted over (the image immediately after turning the ignition switch to ON may be blurred or darker than normal).
(4) A strong beam of light, such as a sunbeam or headlight, hits the camera.
(5) It is too dark around the camera (at night, etc.).
(6) The ambient temperature around the camera is either too high or too low.
