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 48
in (120 cm) 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
