        Tip:

        Each adjusted value for the calibration of the panoramic view monitor system will be stored in the parking assist ECU.

      3. A clear image may not be displayed if there is foreign matter such as water drops, snow or mud on the television camera lens. In such a case, wash the lens with a large amount of water and then wipe it with a soft wet cloth. Do not scrub the camera lens as scrubbing may scratch the camera lens and affect the quality of the image.

  2. NOTES FOR EACH TELEVISION CAMERA ASSEMBLY

    1. Notes for each television camera assembly

      1. The panoramic view monitor system may not function properly if subjected to a severe blow by any hard object.

      2. Do not scrub the cover part of the camera (resin made). Scrubbing may scratch the cover and affect the image. Prevent organic solvents, waxes, bond removing solvents or glass coating from adhering to the cover. If such material adheres to the cover, 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 be displayed if there is foreign matter such as water drops, snow or mud on the television camera lens. In such a case, wash the lens with a large amount of water and then wipe it with a soft wet cloth. Do not scrub the camera lens as scrubbing may scratch the camera lens and affect the quality of the image.

      5. When washing the vehicle with a high-pressure washer, do not spray water on the television camera assembly or surrounding area. High-pressure water can damage the camera.

    2. Images may be unclear even in normal conditions if:

      1. Electrical devices are used in the cabin (noise may occur in the image).

      2. The camera lens is frosted over (the image immediately after turning the engine switch on (IG) may be blurred or darker than normal).

      3. The camera lens is dirty with snow, mud, etc.

      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.

      7. The vehicle is tilted at a steep angle.

      8. The television camera assembly lens is scratched.

      9. The television camera assembly lens has drops of water on it or the humidity is high.

      10. When the camera is used under fluorescent lights, sodium lights or mercury lights, etc., the lights and the illuminated area may appear to flicker.
