Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance
Assist (PCA) is a supplemental system
that can warn the driver or apply braking
force to reduce the possibility of collision
with pedestrians when the vehicle is
reversing.
WARNING
• Always look around your vehicle to make sure there are no objects or
pedestrian before moving the vehicle
in any direction to prevent a collision.
• Do not solely rely on Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist system.
The system might not assist the
driver leading to pedestrian injury or
vehicle damage.
• Be aware that some objects may not be visible on the screen or be
detected by the rear ultrasonic
sensors, due to the objects’ distance,
size or material, all of which can limit
the effectiveness of the sensors.
System Setting and Operation
System setting
Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist-
Reverse (PCA-R) can be activated from
the Settings menu in the LCD display or
infotainment system display by following
the procedure below.
1. Set the Engine Start/Stop button to
the ON or START position.

Reverse Parking Distance Warning
system assists the driver during reverse
movement of the vehicle by chiming if
an object is sensed within the distance of
120 cm (48 in) behind the vehicle.
This system is a supplemental system
that senses objects within the range and
location of the sensors, it cannot detect
objects in other areas where sensors are
not installed.
WARNING
• ALWAYS look around your vehicle to
make sure there are not any objects
or obstacles before moving the
vehicle in any direction to prevent a
collision.
• Always pay close attention when the
vehicle is driven close to objects,
particularly pedestrians, and
especially children.
• Be aware that some objects may
not be visible on the screen or be
detected by the sensors, due to the
objects distance, size or material, all
of which can limit the effectiveness
of the sensor.
Operation of Reverse Parking
Distance Warning System
Operating condition • This system will activate when
backing up with the ignition switch in
the ON position. However, if vehicle
speed exceeds 5 km/h (3 mph), the
system may not detect objects.
• If vehicle speed exceeds 10km/h (6
mph), the system will not warn you
even though objects are detected.
• When more than two objects are
sensed at the same time, the closest
one will be recognized first.

as unpaved roads, gravel, bumps, or
gradient.
• Objects generating excessive
noise such as vehicle horns, loud
motorcycle engines, or truck air
brakes can interfere with the sensor.
• Heavy rain or water spray is present.
• Wireless transmitters or mobile
phones are present near the sensor.
• The sensor is covered with snow.

The following objects may not be
recognized by the sensor: •
Sharp or slim objects such as ropes, chains or small poles.
• Objects, which tend to absorb sensor
frequency such as clothes, spongy
material or snow.
• Undetectable objects smaller than 100
cm (40 in) and narrower than 14 cm (6
in) in diameter.
WARNING
Your new vehicle warranty does not
cover any accidents or damage to the
vehicle or injuries to its occupants
related to Reverse Parking Distance
Warning system. Always drive safely
and cautiously.
Reverse Parking Distance
Warning System Precautions
• Reverse Parking Distance Warning
system may not sound consistently depending on the speed and shapes
of the objects detected.
• Reverse Parking Distance Warning
system may malfunction if the vehicle
bumper height or sensor installation
has been modified or damaged. Any
non-factory installed equipment or
accessories may also interfere with
the sensor performance.
• The sensor may not recognize objects
less than 30 cm (12 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 with any hard objects that
could damage the surface of the
sensor. Sensor damage could occur.
• Do not spray the sensors or its
surrounding area directly with a high
pressure washer. Shock applied from
high pressure water may cause the
device to not operate normally.
