    • *1: w/o Navigation System

    • *2: w/ Navigation System

    • *3: except Manual Transaxle

    • *4: for Manual Transaxle

    GENERAL

    1. This system has a television camera mounted on the back door to assist the driver in parking the vehicle by displaying an image of the area behind the vehicle. The system displays the image on the radio and display receiver assembly*1 or navigation ECU sub-assembly*2.

    2. This system consists of the following components:

      1. Radio and display receiver assembly*1

      2. Navigation ECU sub-assembly*2

      3. Television camera assembly

      4. Park/neutral position switch assembly*3

      5. Back-up light switch assembly*4

    • *1: w/o Navigation System

    • *2: w/ Navigation System

    • *3: except Manual Transaxle

    • *4: for Manual Transaxle

    FUNCTION OF COMPONENTS

    1. The radio and display receiver assembly*1 or navigation ECU sub-assembly*2 controls the system by using information from the following components:

      Components

      Function

      Television camera assembly

      • Captures the view behind the vehicle and transmits the image to the radio and display receiver assembly*1 or navigation ECU sub-assembly*2.

      • Has a color video camera that uses a Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) and wide-angle lens.

      • Radio and display receiver assembly*1

      • Navigation ECU sub-assembly*2

      • Receives the video signals which contain an image of the area behind the vehicle taken with the television camera.

      • Performs control of the system by receiving a shift position signal from the park/neutral position switch assembly*3 or back-up light switch assembly*4.

      • Displays the rear view monitor image on the display panel.

      • Park/neutral position switch assembly*3

      • Back-up light switch assembly*4

      Transmits a reverse signal to the radio and display receiver assembly*1 or navigation ECU sub-assembly*2.

  3. OPERATION EXPLANATION

    1. The park/neutral position switch assembly*1 or back-up light switch assembly *2 outputs the R position signal to the radio and display receiver assembly*3 or navigation ECU sub-assembly*4 when the shift lever is moved to R. After receiving the R position signal, the radio and display receiver assembly*3 or navigation ECU sub-assembly*4 switches to the rear view monitor system.
