■Assistive braking
Assistive braking provides a visual and audible alert when the vehicle is moving
between approximately 1 and 6 mph (2 and 10 km/h) and there is the possibility of
a collision with a detected wall or other obstacles, as well as providing assistance
with braking.
If the only rear sensors are turned off using the parking sensor system, the assistive
braking will not work when reversing.

■How the System Works1Low Speed Braking Control*
For directions on the prop er handling of the sonar
sensors, please refer to the following page.

The vehicle will release the brake and start moving a
few seconds after the system is activated. To keep the
vehicle stopped, keep the brake pedal depressed or
put the transmission into
( P.
In order to prevent the sy stem from activating when
not needed, always turn it off during vehicle
maintenance, when loading on ships, trucks, and so
on, or when using a chas sis dynamometer or free
rollers for inspection or when washing the car in
conveyor type car wash machine.
If you put any accessories on or around the rear
sensors, the Low Speed Br aking Control System may
activate if it detects these accessories as an obstacle.
In this case, turn off the rear sensor. 2 Customized Features P. 376Audible Alert

■Assistive driving power suppression
When the vehicle is stopped or moving at less than 6 mph (10 km/h) and there is an
obstacle such as a wall near the front of or back of the vehicle, if the accelerator
pedal is depressed more than necessary, the system will inform you with a visual and
audible alert. At the same time, the sy stem will prevent sudden forward or
backwards movement by limiting the outpu t of the power system, then assistive
braking will activate when you get closer to the obstacle.
Assistive driving power suppression will not activate in the following situations.
When moving forward:
• When on a steep slope or the shift position is in
(P, (R, or (N.
When reversing:
• When on a steep slope or the shift position is in a position other than
(R.
If the only rear sensors are turned off usi ng the parking sensor system, the assistive
driving power suppression will not work when reversing.

Sonar Sensors*
■Location and range of sensors
The sonar sensors are situated in the front and rear bumpers.1Sonar Sensors*
For the sonar sensors to work properly, do not:•Place stickers or other objects on or around the
sensors.
•Hit the area around the sensors.•Attempt to take apart any sensor.
•Put any accessories on or around the sensors.
Consult with a dealer if:
•A sensor has been subjected to shock.
•Work needs to be done to the area around a
sensor.
In the following cases, the sonar sensors may not
work properly. Have your ve hicle checked by a dealer.
•The front or rear bumper has made contact with a
hill, parking block, curb, embankment, etc.
•The vehicle has been involv ed in frontal or rear
collision.
•The vehicle has been driven through a deep
puddle.

Parking Sensor System*
The corner and center sensors monitor obstacles around your vehicle, and the
beeper, driver information interface and audio/informatio n screen let you know the
approximate distance between your vehicle and the obstacle.
■The sensor location and range
1 Parking Sensor System*
Even when the system is on, always confirm if there is
no obstacle near your ve hicle before parking.
The system may not work properly when:
•The sensors are covered with snow, ice, mud, or dirt.•The vehicle has been out in hot or cold weather.•There is something nearby that emits ultrasonic
waves or high frequency sounds.
•Driving in bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).•Any accessories have been put on or around the
sensors.
The system may not de tect these obstacles:
•Thin or low objects.•Sonic-absorptive materials, such as snow, cotton,
or sponge.
•Objects directly under the bumper.
The system may falsely de tect obstacles in the
following situations:
•The vehicle is on uneven su rface, such as grass,
bumps, or a hill.
•When close to other vehicl es with sonar sensors or
other objects that em it ultrasonic waves.
•There is splashing water near the sensors due to
heavy rains, etc.
Do not put any accessories on or around the sensors.
•If you put any accessories (such as a towing hitch or
bicycle rack) on or around the rear sensors, the
system may activate if it detects these accessories
as an obstacle. In this case, turn off the rear sensor. 2Settings

uuParking Your Vehicle uCross Traffic Monitor
Continued
Driving
Cross Traffic Monitor
Monitors the rear corner areas using the radar sensors when reversing, and alerts
you if a vehicle approaching from a rear corner is detected.
The system is convenient when you are backing out of a parking space.1Cross Traffic Monitor
The parking sensor system’s alerting buzzer overrides
the Cross Traffic Monitor buzzer when the sensors
are detecting obstacles at the closest range.
3CAUTION
Cross Traffic Monitor cannot detect all
approaching vehicles and may not detect
an approaching vehicle at all.
Failure to visually confirm that it is safe to
back up the vehicle before doing so may
result in a collision.
Do not solely rely on the system when
reversing; always also use your mirrors, and
look behind and to the sides of your vehicle
before reversing.

Driving
The system activates when:
• The power mode is in ON.
• The Cross Traffic Monitor is turned on.
2 Cross Traffic Monitor On and Off P. 592
•The transmission is in (R.
• Your vehicle is moving at 3 mph (5 km/h) or
lower.
When a vehicle is detected approaching from a rear corner, Cross Traffic Monitor
alerts you with a buzzer and a displayed warning.
The system will not detect a vehicle that approaches from directly behind your
vehicle, nor will it provide alerts about a detected vehicle when it moves directly
behind your vehicle.
The system does not provide alerts for a vehicle that is moving away from your
vehicle, and it may alert for pedestri ans, bicycles, or stationary objects.
■How the System Works1Cross Traffic Monitor
Cross Traffic Monitor may not detect or may delay
alerting an approach ing vehicle, or may alert without
an approaching vehicle under the following
conditions:
•An obstacle, such as a nother vehicle and a wall,
near your vehicle’s rear bumper, is blocking the
radar sensor’s scope.
•Your vehicle is moving at the speed of about 3 mph
(5 km/h) or higher.
•A vehicle is approaching at the speed other than
between about 6 mph (10 km/h) and 16 mph (25
km/h).
•The system picks up external interference such as
other radar sensors from an other vehicle or strong
radio wave transmitted fr om a facility nearby.
•Either corner of the rear bumper is covered with
snow, ice, mud or dirt.
•When there is bad weather.
•Your vehicle is on an incline.
•Your vehicle is tilted due to a heavy load in the rear.•Your vehicle is reversing towards a wall, a pole, a
vehicle, and so on.
The rear bumper or the sens ors have been improperly
repaired or the rear bum per has been deformed.
Have your vehicle checked by a dealer.
For proper operation, always keep the rear bumper
corner area clean.
Do not cover the rear bumper corner area with labels
or stickers of any kind.
