Rear parking assist system pre-
cautions
• The rear parking assist system
may not sound sequentially
depending on the speed and
shapes of the objects detected.
• The rear parking assist system
may malfunction if the vehicle
bumper height or sensor installa-
tion has been modified or dam-
aged. Any non-factory installed
equipment or accessories may
also interfere with the sensor per-
formance.
• The sensor may not recognize
objects less than 30 cm (11.8 in.)
from the sensor, or it may sense an
incorrect distance. Use caution.
• When the sensor is frozen or
stained with snow, dirt, or water,
the sensor may be inoperative until
the stains are removed using a soft
cloth.
• Do not push, scratch or strike the
sensor. Sensor damage could
occur.
This system can only sense
objects within the range and loca-
tion of the sensors; It can not
detect objects in other areas
where sensors are not installed.
Also, small or slim objects, such
as poles or objects located
between sensors may not be
detected by the sensors.
Always visually check behind the
vehicle when backing up.
Be sure to inform any drivers of
the vehicle that may be unfamiliar
with the system regarding the sys-
tems capabilities and limitations.
NOTICE
Pay close attention when the
vehicle is driven close to
objects on the road, particularly
pedestrians,
and especially
children. Be aware that some
objects may not be detected by
the sensors, due to the object’s
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effective-
ness of the sensor. Always per-
form a visual inspection to
make sure the vehicle is clear of
all obstructions before moving
the vehicle in any direction.
