Nissan Maxima: Difference between predicted and actual distances
The distance guide line and the vehicle width guide line should be used as a reference only when the vehicle is on a level, paved surface. The distance viewed on the monitor is for reference only and may be different than the actual distance between the vehicle and displayed objects.
Backing up on a steep uphill
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the distance guide lines and the vehicle width guide lines are shown closer than the actual distance.
For example, the display shows 3 ft (1.0 m) to the place (A) , but the actual 3 ft (1.0 m) distance on the hill is the place (B). Note that any object on the hill is viewed in the monitor further than it appears.
