Rear parking assist system
(if equipped)
The Rear Parking Assist System
assists the driver during reverse move-
ment of the vehicle by chiming if any
object is sensed within the distance of
50 inches (120 cm ) behind the vehicle.
This system is a supplemental sys-
tem that senses objects within the
range and location of the sensors, it
cannot detect objects in other areas
where sensors are not installed.
Operation of the Rear ParkingAssist System
Operating condition
This system will activate when
backing up with the ignition switch
in the ON position. However, if vehi-
cle speed exceeds 3 mph (5km/h),
the system may not detect objects.
If vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h), the system will not warn you
even though objects are detected.
When more than two objects are sensed at the same time, the clos-
est one will be recognized first.

Sensor
ALWAYS look around your vehi-
cle to make sure there are not
any objects or obstacles before
moving the vehicle in any direc-
tion to prevent a collision.
Always pay close attention
when the vehicle is driven close
to objects, particularly pedestri-
ans, 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 effective-
ness of the sensor.
