If the system develops a problem,
you will see a ‘‘CHECK PARKING
SENSOR SYSTEM’’ message on the
multi-inf ormation display, and a
beeper sounds continuously.If the system develops a problem,
you will see all parking sensor
indicators on the instrument panel,
and a beeper sounds continuously.
If there is a problem with any of the
operational sensors, the indicators
f or these sensors will appear
constantly in red.
Very of ten, a sensor covered with
mud, ice, snow, etc. is the cause of
this display. Check the sensors f irst.
If the indicators stay on or the
beeper does not stop, have the
system checked by your dealer.On models with multi-inf ormation

Do not put any accessories on or
around the sensors.The system may not f unction
properly under these conditions:
The sensors are covered with
snow,ice,mud,etc.
When the vehicle is on a rough
road, on grass, or on a hill.
After the vehicle has been sitting
out in hot or cold weather. When the system is af f ected by
some electrical equipment or
devices generating an ultrasonic
wave.
When operating the vehicle in bad
weather.
Thesystemmaynotsensethinor
low objects, or sonic-absorptive
materials such as snow, cotton, or
sponge.
The system cannot sense objects
directly under the bumper.
The range of the corner sensors and
the rear center sensor are limited.
Each corner sensor is capable of
sensing an obstacle only when your
vehicleis24in(60cm)orcloser.
The rear center sensor senses an
obstacle that is behind your vehicle
43 in (1.1 m) or closer.

procedure.When you shif t to reverse (R), the
LED indicator in the switch will blink
as a reminder that the rear sensors
are disabled.
Press and hold the parking sensor
system switch and then turn the

position.
Keep pressing the switch f or 10
seconds. The LED indicator in the
switch will f lash. To return to the original setting,
repeat the procedure. A beeper will
sound 3 times to conf irm that the

When the low tire pressure indicator
is on, one or more of your tires is
signif icantly underinf lated. You
should stop and check your tires as
soon as possible, and inf late them to
the proper pressure as indicated on
the vehicle’s tire inf ormation placard.
If you think you can saf ely drive a
short distance to a service station,
proceed slowly, and inf late the tire to
the recommended pressure shown
on the driver’s doorjamb.
If the tire is f lat, or if the tire
pressure is too low to continue
driving, replace the tire with the
compact spare tire (see page ).
If you cannot make the low tire
pressure indicator go out af ter
inflating the tires to the specified
values, have your dealer check the
system as soon as possible.Driving on a signif icantly under
inf lated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Underinf lation also reduces f uel
efficiency and tire tread life, and may
af f ect the vehicle’s handling and
stopping ability.
Becausetirepressurevariesby
temperature and other conditions,
the low tire pressure indicator may
come on unexpectedly.
Each tire has its own pressure
sensor (not including the spare tire).
If the air pressure of a tire becomes
signif icantly low while driving, the
sensor in that tire immediately sends
a signal that causes the low tire
pressure indicator to come on. Your vehicle is equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
that turns on every time you start the
engine and monitors the pressure in
your tires while driving.

After you replace the flat tire with

Like all assistance systems, BSI has
limitations. Over-reliance on BSI may
result in a collision. Always look in
your mirrors, to either side of your
vehicle, and behind you f or other
vehicles bef ore changing lanes.The system should be turned of f
when towing a trailer. Due to the
added mass and resulting changes in
radar coverage, the system cannot
operate as intended, and detection of
the trailer itself by the radar sensors
may cause the BSI alert indicators to
illuminate.
The speed dif f erence between
your vehicle and a vehicle
approaching f rom behind is
greaterthan31mph(50km/h).
A vehicle is parked in a side lane.
The speed dif f erence between
your vehicle and the vehicle you
are passing is greater than 6 mph
(10 km/h).
An object not detected by the
radar sensors approaches or
passes your vehicle.
The BSI alert indicators may not
