Features of your vehicle
The parking assist system assists the
driver during movement of the vehicle by
chiming if any object is sensed within thedistance of 60 cm in front and 100 cm in
behind the vehicle. This system is a sup-plemental system and it is not intended
to nor does it replace the need for
extreme care and attention of the driver.The sensing range and objects
detectable by the sensors are limited.
Whenever moving pay as much attention
to what is in front and behind of you as
you would in a vehicle without a parkingassist system.
Operation of the parking assistsystem
Operating condition
This system will activate when theparking assist button is pressed with
the engine running.
Sensing distance in backing up is approximately 100 cm when you are

distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effectiveness of
the sensor. Always perform a visual
inspection to make sure the vehicle
is clear of all obstructions before
moving the vehicle in any direction.
