PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNING: To help avoid personal
injury, always use caution when in
reverse (R) and when using the sensing
system. WARNING: The system may not
detect objects with surfaces that absorb
reflection. Always drive with due care
and attention. Failure to take care may
result in a crash. WARNING:
Traffic control
systems, inclement weather, air brakes,
external motors and fans may affect the
correct operation of the sensing
system.This may cause reduced
performance or false alerts. WARNING:
The system may not
detect small or moving objects,
particularly those close to the ground.
Note: If your vehicle is equipped with
MyKey ™, the sensing system cannot be
turned off when a MyKey ™ is present.
See
Principle of Operation (page 52).
Note: Keep the sensors, located on the
bumper or fascia, free from snow, ice and
large accumulations of dirt. If the sensors
are covered, the system ’s accuracy can be
affected. Do not clean the sensors with
sharp objects.
Note: If your vehicle sustains damage to
the bumper or fascia, leaving it misaligned
or bent, the sensing zone may be altered
causing inaccurate measurement of
obstacles or false alerts. Note:
Certain add-on devices installed
around the bumper or fascia may create
false alerts. For example, large trailer
hitches, bike or surfboard racks, license plate
brackets, bumper covers or any other device
that may block the normal detection zone
of the system. Remove the add-on device
to prevent false alerts.
Note: When a trailer is connected to your
vehicle, the rear parking aid may detect the
trailer and therefore provide an alert. Disable
the rear parking aid when a trailer is
connected to prevent the alert.
The sensing system warns the driver of
obstacles within a certain range of your
vehicle. The system turns on automatically
whenever you switch the ignition on.
The system can be switched off through
the information display menu or from the
pop-up message that appears once you
shift the transmission into reverse (R). See
General Information
(page 86).
If a fault is present in the system, a warning
message appears in the information
display. See
Information Messages
(page 88).
REAR PARKING AID WARNING:
The system may not
detect small or moving objects,
particularly those close to the ground. WARNING:
The system may not
detect objects with surfaces that absorb
reflection. Always drive with due care
and attention. Failure to take care may
result in a crash.

WARNING: The parking aid system
can only assist you to detect objects
when your vehicle is moving at parking
speeds. To help avoid personal injury you
must take care when using the parking
aid system. WARNING: To help avoid personal
injury, always use caution when in
reverse (R) and when using the sensing
system.
Note: Some accessories such as large
trailer hitches, bike or surfboard racks can
cause reduced performance or false alerts.
Note: Keep the sensors free from snow, ice
and large accumulations of dirt. Blocked
sensors may affect system accuracy. Do
not clean the sensors with sharp objects.
Note: If your vehicle sustains damage
leaving the sensors misaligned, this will
cause inaccurate measurements or false
alerts.
The system warns you of objects that are
within the detection zone of the bumper
areas.
When the parking aid system sounds a
tone, the audio system may reduce the set
volume. When the warning ends, the audio
system will return to the previously set
volume.
The rear parking aid sensors automatically
turn on when you shift into reverse (R). Coverage area of up to 72 in (183
cm) from the bumper. There is
decreased coverage area at the
outer corners of the bumper.

As your vehicle moves closer to an
obstacle, the rate of the audible warning
increases. When the obstacle is less than
12 in (30 cm) away, the audible warning
sounds continuously. If a stationary or
receding object is detected
12 in (30 cm)
or more from the side of your vehicle, the
audible warning sounds for only three
seconds. Once the system detects an
object approaching, the audible warning
sounds again.
If a fault is present in the system, a warning
message appears in the information
display and does not allow you to switch
the system on.

Sensing System Audible Warnings
Audible warnings sound when large objects
are within the sensor coverage areas of
either bumper in the following manner:
•
You will hear a high-pitched tone from
the front audio system speakers when
large objects are within the sensor
coverage area of the front bumper.
• You will hear a lower-pitched tone
from the rear audio system speakers
when large objects are within the
sensor coverage area of the rear
bumper.
• The parking aid system prioritises
audible warnings based on large
objects that are the closest to your
vehicle ’s front or rear bumper. For
example, if an object is 24 in (60 cm)
from the front bumper and at the same
time, an object is only
16 in (40 cm)
from the rear bumper, you will hear the
lower-pitched tone from the rear audio
system speakers.
• You will hear an alternating audible
warning from the front and rear audio
system speakers if large objects are
less than
12 in (30 cm) from the front
and rear bumpers.
• If the object is more than 12 in (30 cm)
from the side of the bumper area, the
audible warning sounds for three
seconds. If the object is less than
12 in
(30 cm) from the side of the bumper
area the audible warning sounds
continuously.
Switching the Parking Aid System
Off
Press the button to switch the system off. REAR VIEW CAMERA WARNING:
Do not place objects
in front of the camera. WARNING: The rear view camera
system is a reverse aid supplement
device that still requires the driver to use
it in conjunction with the interior and
exterior mirrors for maximum coverage. WARNING: Objects that are close
to either corner of the bumper or under
the bumper, might not be seen on the
screen due to the limited coverage of the
camera system. WARNING:
Reverse your vehicle
slowly. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, personal injury or death. WARNING:
Use caution when the
liftgate is ajar. If the liftgate is ajar, the
camera will be out of position and the
video image may be incorrect. All
guidelines disappear when the liftgate
is ajar. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in personal injury. WARNING:
Do not switch the
camera features on or off when your
vehicle is moving. WARNING: To help avoid personal
injury always use caution when in reverse
(R) and when using the rear view
camera.
The rear view camera provides an image
of the area behind your vehicle. During
operation, lines appear in the display that
represents the path of your vehicle and
proximity to objects behind it.

ECO MODE (IF EQUIPPED)
This system assists you in driving more
efficiently by constantly monitoring
characteristics of gear changing,
anticipation of traffic conditions and
speeds while driving.
The value of these characteristics is
represented by petals shown in the display,
with five petals being the most efficient.
The more efficiently you drive, the better
the rating, and the better your vehicle's
overall fuel economy.
Note: These efficiency values do not result
in a defined fuel consumption figure. It might
vary as it is not only related to these driving
habits, but also influenced by many other
factors such as short trips and cold starts.
Note: Frequent short trips, where the engine
does not fully warm up, will also increase
fuel consumption
The system is accessed using the
information display control. See
General
Information (page 86).

C
Gear shifting
Use the highest drivable gear appropriate
for the road conditions to improve fuel
consumption. Anticipation
Adjust your vehicle speed and the distance
to other vehicles to avoid the need for
heavy braking or acceleration to improve
fuel economy.
Efficient speed
Reduce your cruising speed on open roads
to improve economy. Higher speeds use
more fuel.
Resetting Eco Mode
Reset the average fuel consumption by
using the information display control.
Note:
New values may take a short time to
calculate
STEERING
