WARNING

•

Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Mov-
ing Object Detection (MOD) system
could result in serious injury or death.

•

The MOD system is not a substitute
for proper vehicle operation and is
not designed to prevent contact with
objects

surrounding

the

vehicle.

When maneuvering, always use the
outside mirrors and rearview mirror
and turn and check the surroundings
to ensure it is safe to maneuver.

•

The system is deactivated at speeds
above 5 mph (8 km/h) . It is reacti-
vated at lower speeds.

•

The MOD system is not designed to
detect

surrounding

stationary

objects.

The MOD system can inform the driver of
moving objects near the vehicle when
backing out of garages, maneuvering in
parking lots and in other such instances.

The MOD system detects moving objects
by using image processing technology on
the image shown in the display.

MOD SYSTEM OPERATION

The MOD system will turn on automatically
under the following conditions:
• When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)

position.

• When the CAMERA button is pressed to

activate the camera view on the display.

• When vehicle speed decreases below ap-

proximately 5 mph (8 km/h) and the
camera screen is displayed.

The MOD system operates in the following
conditions when the camera view is
displayed:
• When the shift lever is in the P (Park) or N

(Neutral) position and the vehicle is
stopped, the MOD system detects mov-
ing objects in the bird’s-eye view. The
MOD system will not operate if the out-
side mirrors are moving in or out, in the
stowed position, or if either front door is
opened.

objects in the display is not
changed.

•

The MOD system might detect flow-
ing water droplets on the camera
lens, white smoke from the muffler,
moving shadows, etc.

•

The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, di-
rection, distance or shape of the
moving objects.

•

If your vehicle sustains damage to
the parts where the camera is in-
stalled, leaving it misaligned or bent,
the sensing zone may be altered and
the MOD system may not detect ob-
jects properly.

•

When the temperature is extremely
high or low, the screen may not dis-
play objects clearly. This is not a
malfunction.

NOTE:
The blue MOD icon will change to or-
ange if one of the following has oc-
curred

•

When the system is malfunctioning.

•

When the component temperature
reaches a high level (icon will blink).

WARNING

•

The air conditioner cooling function
operates only when the engine is
running.

•

Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the assis-
tance of others alone in your vehicle.
Pets should also not be left alone.
They could accidentally injure them-
selves or others through inadvertent
operation of the vehicle. Also, on hot,
sunny days, temperatures in a closed
vehicle could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possibly
fatal injuries to people or animals.

•

Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the inte-
rior air to become stale and the win-
dows to fog up.

NOTE:

• Odors from inside and outside the ve-

hicle can build up in the air conditioner
unit. Odor can enter the passenger
compartment through the vents.

• When parking, set the heater and air

conditioner controls to turn off air re-
circulation to allow fresh air into the
passenger compartment. This should
help reduce odors inside the vehicle.

Operating tips

• Keep the windows closed while the air

conditioner is in operation.

• After parking in the sun, drive for two or

three minutes with the windows open to
vent hot air from the passenger com-
partment. Then, close the windows. This
allows the air conditioner to cool the inte-
rior more quickly.

•

The air conditioning system should be
operated for approximately ten min-
utes at least once a month. This helps
prevent damage to the system due to
lack of lubrication.

• A visible mist may be seen coming from

the ventilators in hot, humid conditions
as the air is cooled rapidly. This does not
indicate a malfunction.

•

If the high temperature warning light

illuminates in red indicating en-

gine coolant temperature is over the
normal range, turn the air conditioner
off. For additional information, see “If
your vehicle overheats” (P. 6-12).
